DescriptionGreenMap MIT is a project to produce green maps of Cambridge, Massachusetts and the MITcampus. A green map plots the locations of environmentally and culturally significantresources e.g; recycling centers, toxic waste sites, public art, community gardens and sociallyconscious businesses. The green map concept was created by Green Map System, Inc. as ameans of public education.

PrintingTo conserve ink and paper, please do not print this page.The map (pages 2 and 3 of this document) is intended to be printed double-sided, so that youcan easily flip the map over (on the short edge/around the long axis) to locate details about afeature. While it scales nicely for printing on standard 8½”x11” (letter or A4) paper it isdesigned for 11”x17" (tabloid or A3) pages.

Folding InstructionsIf printed on a tabloid sheet, the map will fold into a neat 4¼"x2¾" pocket-sized map like so:

1. Start with the map face up and the legend in the upper right hand corner.2. Fold in half, bringing the left edge to the right.3. Fold in half, bringing the top edge to the bottom.4. Repeat steps 2 and 3.

ParticipateIf you have comments or would like to contribute in some way, we'd love to hear from you! Inthe future we hope to host a live web map, offer larger printed maps, and increase our scopeto include a wider variety of features for all of Camberville.
