JustGreen Lifestyle was proud to be the official carbon offset sponsor for the second year of the Green Mile 5k Walk/Run, hosted by the United States Green Building Council’s South Florida Chapter in Miami, Florida.

As a sponsor, JustGreen donated the carbon offsets to offset the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the car travel of the attendees to and from the event.

“We are incredibly thankful to JustGreen Lifestyle for their support of our 2nd Annual Green Mile.  Doubling our numbers from last year, the run was a huge success and we were able to share with the Miami community the importance of sustainable and healthy lifestyles through a fun and energizing event.” K. Denaye Hinds, Chair for USGBC Miami.

“We are proud members of the USGBC and are pleased to partner on events and activities to help reduce carbon emissions and stop global warming ”, said JustGreen Executive Vice President Gerardo Manalac.
