askHRgreen.org's Write as Rain campaign has gained a lot of exposure in the local media for the unique way it is delivering an eco-friendly message.
The campaign has "green" messages, such as Only Rain Down the Storm Drain; No Wipes in Our Pipes; Your Morning Shower Starts with Tap Water; and Cigarette Butts are Litter, Too, that magically appear on local sidewalks, streetscapes and thoroughfares when it rains. The goal of the campaign is to inspire people to think about the Hampton Roads environment in ways they haven’t before.
Below is a collection of videos and stories produced by Hampton Roads' media outlets about the campaign. If you'd like to know more or view a map where you can find these messages near you, visit http://askhrgreen.org/rainyday/
