Dallas city officials have launched a Web site dedicated to environmental initiatives, making it the first major U.S. city with a comprehensive stand-alone site addressing green issues, said Mayor Tom Leppert.

The site, www.greendallas.net, offers visitors tips on how to save water and energy, recycle, improve air quality and green their homes. It also will feature the city’s environmental initiatives and awards. Dallas officially launched the site Jan. 9.

City officials are encouraging residents to be more environmentally conscious to improve the city.
