In 2005, Wendy Rieger's first Going Green segment aired about a woman who became allergic to her own house and the eco-ways she found to counteract her bad reactions. Since then, these eco-stories have focused on topics ranging from "green" building materials to environmentally friendly products, gifts and websites.

Rieger's reports air on NBC stations around the country. These stories have also inspired NBC Nightly News and several other NBC stations to produce their own series on environmental issues.
