Portland Zoo awash in conservation efforts

Our dear friend Carey Harrison alerted me about this article in the Portland Tribune http://www.portlandtribune.com/news/story.php?story_id=131785153192076700 about the Portland Zoo.
"When it comes to sustainability improvements, it’s all happening at the zoo.
The Oregon Zoo, that is, not the Central Park Zoo that Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel sang about in their 1967 tune. Thanks to voter approval of a $125 million bond measure in the thick of the nation’s financial crisis in November 2008, the Oregon Zoo is trying to make good on its goal of becoming the greenest zoo in the country."
