My name is Philip Kaake and I am a REALTORĀ® with Bayside Real Estate.

I created GoGreenAlameda as a personal project to lead by example.
There are plenty of places to find tips and ideas on how to go greener.
You will find many here as well, however I thought that if you could see and
here about what what other people are doing that story would inspire change.
Sometimes it is a simply changes in behaviors or habits that can start the process.
My feeling is no effort is too small.

Coming from a previous career in photography and film I love to tell stories.
If you are interested in participating please let me know. I hope to collect stories and examples
of what YOU are doing to become more environmentally conscious. e-mail me.

My first step was to start riding my bike more. People who know me know that I love riding my bike. I have both a road bike and mountain bike, however they require special shoes and are not comfortable for causal riding. Recently, I purchased a hybrid bike for commuting, shopping and around town cruising. A great side benefit besides less gas use, is waving to other cyclists and the intimacy of getting to talk with people and see the community from my bike seat.
