GreenFest To Take Place in Savannah October 13


SAVANNAH - Green Lifespace, a Savannah based green lifestyle
consulting firm, has teamed up with Project Hot Seat, a Greenpeace
campaign dedicated to fighting global warming, to present GreenFest.

GreenFest, to be held at the Starland Farmers Market on 40th and
Whitaker streets in Savannah , on Saturday, October 13, 2007 from 11am
to 4 pm, will bring together local organizations and businesses to
recognize Savannah ’s commitment to going green and to send a
strong message to Representative Barrow that he must support
legislation to reduce global warming.

Approximately 30 local businesses and environmental interest groups will be on hand to help educate the public about what can be done to help combat global warming. Eric Culberson will be performing live from 11am - 4pm. At noon, 1:00, 2:00 and 3:00 a variety of speakers will address the local impacts of global warming and Greenpeace and Green Lifespace will ask everyone to take action to stop global warming by contacting Representative Barrow.

Everyone, from restaurants who have begun recycling their waste, to local musicians/artists, to non profit organizations will be in attendance, so be sure to make it to GreenFest for some food, fun, music and the chance to take action!
