Today’s leaf is actually a Twitter avatar, but it brings into focus an organization worth spotlighting.

NW Cleantech is an online community based out of the Northwest that acts as a gathering place for people, information and resources in the world of clean technology. You’ll find the latest clean tech news, photos, videos, posts and, more importantly, like-minded individuals to sharpen your ideas with. Though it seems fledgling now, it will no doubt continue to grow like the category it serves.

The avatar uses a power cord connected to a leaf, implying that nature can provide clean energy. A great idea if only the execution was at the same level.

We look forward to being a part of this conversation and seeing this community grow.
