You know there is something different going on when in the great state of Kentucky, when Gov Steve Beshear and the Nappy Roots are out together in Bowling Green on September 11 to remember and honor the victims of the 2001 attacks, and to look to acts of community service that promote Green Jobs as the imperative for a better future for this country.  They were joined by Kentucky Secretary of Finance and Administration Jonathan Miller, Warren County Judge-Executive Mike Buchanon, representatives of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and local leaders and residents.

Nappy Roots performed for their hometown residents in Bowling Green at a local Housing Authority project, where residents received information on green jobs, as well as tips on saving energy and purchasing more energy efficient products.
