The Green Festival, a collaboration between Global Exchange and Green America, will take place in San Francisco from November 13-15. This year promises to be an improvement of last year's event, which consisted of over 150 speakers and 400 green businesses. The first San Francisco Green Festival took place in 2002 and only featured 50 speakers.
The Green Festival aims to promote the creation of a sustainable community by promoting lifestyles, products and services that are environmentally friendly. The Festival will feature: over 125 authors, leaders and educators, how-to workshops, children's activities, organic beer and wine, films and live music. The Festival also has a marketplace where over 350 green businesses will be selling everything from natural body care products to organic cottons and Fair Trade gifts.
