Thankfully, many people are becoming a lot more savvy when it comes to scrutinizing green products and services, and there is increasing demand for legislation that forces manufacturers to disclose all ingredients in their products. Things are getting better!Andy C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09594193387964718173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6645035685408630604.post-58583506422742227002011-04-12T10:32:36.155-04:002011-04-12T10:32:36.155-04:00Ah, the GLS... an excellent opportunity to both le...Ah, the GLS... an excellent opportunity to both learn about a handful of companies that are trying really hard to do good work, and to learn about a bunch of other companies that are trying really hard to make it LOOK like they do good work! The few times I've been I had a great time, though... although the food offerings are sometimes hit-and-miss.Marchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16057871775535533439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6645035685408630604.post-70339967678843048652011-04-12T09:22:15.575-04:002011-04-12T09:22:15.575-04:00It's not lame!

Many people avoid the Green Living Show because it feels too commercial, or they're worried the exhibitors are engaged in greenwashing, or they don't like the idea of spending a beautiful spring day inside of a convention centre! But I wouldn't want to miss out on learning about new initiatives and green businesses, and eating really tasty food. :)<br /><br />Let me know if you find a show like this near you.Andy C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09594193387964718173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6645035685408630604.post-53577866372931551762011-04-11T22:44:48.787-04:002011-04-11T22:44:48.787-04:00Can you believe that I've never been to a sing...Can you believe that I've never been to a single green public event? Nope. Not one. How lame is that? This one sounds like a great opportunity to learn and connect with other local greenies. I'll have to see if there's one around me coming up soon to live up to my desire to be a more public type of greenie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
