people of Greensburg. But afterwards (después de eso), something good happened. The
people of Greensburg built their town again –this time (esta vez), they decided to make
it “Green”, friendly and safe.
Today, if you go to the town’s website, you will see the slogan : “Greensburg; Better!!
Stronger!!” Recycling centres and solar system are important parts of people’s lives in
Greensburg. There is also a wind farm for energy and they are building model
ecohomes (casas ecológicas). These Green houses will sabe a lot of energy. Their
special design has also got a more important advantage: people living in them will be
safe. Even a powerful tornado can’t destroy these homes.

teach the rest of the world, too. In the past, Greensburg wasn’t a very popular place for
