Environmental Activism and Atomic Garden
In April 2007, the Armstrong family volunteered with the Habitat for Humanity development project, working in New Orleans for three days.
Adrienne Armstrong undertakes work with the Natural Resources Defense Council. She composed a video to help raise awareness of the everyday things people can do to protect the natural environment. The Green Day + NRDC website also gives visitors an opportunity to become involved in environmental causes and campaigns.
In November 2007, she teamed up with Jamie Kidson to open Atomic Garden, located at 5453 College Avenue in Oakland, California, an eco-friendly clothing and home goods store with a strong community orientation. A blog post on "More Ways to Waste Time" also gives information about the project.
In a recent podcast with Vickie Howell, Adrienne discussed Atomic Garden, as well as her other ongoing environmental work.
