We are a group of business owners along with like-minded people that have come together to try to create a greener and more sustainable Sri Lanka.
Our aim is to make it easier for the vendors and residents, as well as visitors to be environmentally friendly.
We encourage people throught ten core principles of sustainable practices to adopt a greener lifestyle. Through campaigning and offering social support Greener Galle helps out with environmentally friendly projects.
