Fivelimes Green Maps: Find Green Services in Your City
by Collin Dunn, Corvallis, OR, USA on 12.18.06
Fivelimes (whom we've featured not once but twice), the web-based community that employs the power of the people to rate and review sustainable products and goods, has added a new feature: Fivelimes Green Maps, an interactive map of green services in your home city. It can help find local sustainable restaurants, biodiesel gas stations, green retailers and more. Know of a green business, service, retailer or utility that you don't see? Users can add them and literally help put them on the map. The service has just been available for a couple of days, so not all major cities have been added yet, though they promise to keep working; contact them to help get your city at the top of the list. Learn more about them here, and start spreading the green here. ::Fivelimes Green Maps

Yep, these maps are a great platform - thanks 5limes! BUT they need active participation from users to make them truely useful... So go forth and populate the database!
Wow. their logo looks a lot like skype's green thing, but flipped.
Would this be a good place to put alternative fuel stations (E-85, Bio-diesel). Or is there already a sight for alternative fuels that I do not know about.
