You want to be green, but you have questions. What can I do about climate change? How can I be sure that my “natural” body products don’t pose health risks? What can I do to support positive change in my own community?

At the Seattle Green Festival you’ll find real answers Don’t miss Amory Lovins, environmentalist, entrepreneur and author, as he brings to light the profitable solutions to oil, climate and proliferation. The always hilariously irreverent Jim Hightower, author and radio show host, will inspire you with powerful stories of people who have challenged the current world view to live based on their progressive values.
