About Us

Green Source Texas is an award-winning digital publication
covering environmental news in the Lone Star State.

Launched in 2011 as Green Source DFW, the educational site was created by the Memnosyne Institute, a Dallas-based nonprofit, to educate the North Texas community about environmental topics including green living, sustainability, conservation, environmental advocacy and public policy discussions.

In 2025, the site was relaunched as GreenSourceTexas.org expanding its coverage statewide. Today, Green Source Texas continues to advance the green movement through original reporting, feature articles, a green jobs board and a green event calendar. Since 2019, the staff has also produced a podcast called the Texas Green Report, aimed at a state-wide audience.

AWARDS

In 2019, the Texas Sierra Club honored GSDFW editor Julie Thibodeaux and GSDFW reporter Julie Ryan for environmental reporting. In 2018, Green Source DFW received the Media Accountability Award from the Dallas Peace and Justice Center.

Prior to that, Green Source DFW was awarded the Green Media Award by the North Texas Corporate Recycling Association in 2012 & 2014. More on GSDFW milestones.
