The National Basketball Association launches its first ever Green Week today in an effort to promote environmental awareness and raise money for the National Resources Defense Council.Each individual team in the league is sponsoring local events to help the environment, and the league itself will hold auctions with the proceeds going to the NRDC.
In addition, several teams in the league will be wearing green jerseys instead of their usual home colors to promote the event. Some teams are offering 25 percent off the cost of tickets to fans who take public transportation to games, and the Minnesota Timberwolves are even giving free upper-level seats to those who take transit to a game.
