QUOTES

By living, buying, and investing green, you are choosing to put your economic power to work for a better world as you meet your own family's needs.

With each green step you take, you help solve our planet's problems. When you buy fair trade coffee, bananas, chocolate, and gifts, you ensure a fair wage for farmers and producers around the world. By choosing organic foods and organic cotton clothing, you put an end to the dangerous pesticides used on conventional crops. By making your home more energy-efficient, you stop global warming and crate a more secure energy future. You restore the Earth. You save lives.

Goods and services, jobs and empowerment, community and environmental health - all of these are the products of green businesses. By living, buying, and investing green, you are celebrating and nurturing the connections that sustain us all.

Everything in the world is connected. In the large and small choices you and I make every day, we are connected to each other, the Earth and everyone on it.

With each green step you take, you help solve our planet's problems…Together, all of our green steps add up to powerful change.

If you look around Green Festival, you'd be convinced that the movement for a just and sustainable world is booming. But is it? The answer is a resounding 'yes'! And success is being fueled by creative, passionate, people using powerful economic strategies to promote fair trade, renewable energy, local economies, and investment in healthy communities.

Socially responsible investing is a powerful concept. It's strong performance and ability to improve corporate responsibility gets people's attention.
