MLB to go green during World Series | MLB.com: News

MLB to go green during World Series | MLB.com: News: "When the 106th World Series opens on Wednesday, MLB is once again putting the environment front and center on baseball's biggest stage.

Thanks to a special partnership between MLB and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), environmental issues will be highlighted again at the World Series. The 81st annual All-Star Game in Anaheim this past July featured many similar practices to raise awareness among fans, while putting on an environmentally friendly event.

Community initiatives are nothing new for the league or either of the two teams, the Rangers and Giants. Both clubs, along with the other 28, undertake a vast array of initiatives in and around their communities throughout the season. The Giants and Rangers are set to continue their efforts throughout the World Series, including a variety of school and hospital visits throughout Games 1 through 4.

Neither team is new to such intiatives, employing tactics to lessen their environmental footprint on their communities on a regular basis."
