Looking for easy ways to green up your life or your office? Or do you have plenty of green wisdom and vision to share with others who are making their way down a cleaner, greener pathway?
Either way, you're going to want to check out the GreenFestivals, which have come about as a joint project between Co-Op America and Global Exchange. The next gatherings will be in Seattle and Chicago - personally I barely missed the most recent San Francisco festival. *sigh* I may well have to see if I can shag my tuckus back up to Washington in time for the Seattle event!
Here's the skinny about the Seattle Green Festival. You can even get discounted tickets; just follow the instructions at the very bottom of the Seattle event page. Maybe I'll get to see you there. If not, let me know if I can stow away in your baggage for Chicago. *heh heh*
In case you're wondering, here's what'll be going on in Seattle come April - sounds fun, doesn't it?
From the Seattle Green Festival page for 2008:
