We did come and enjoy the music, food, people and the festival this weekend. It was awesome! The music was great, food was incredible and we left with a fistful of information and a gratifying feeling about being part of something good.
I was so inspired by all you festival-goers who stopped by The Change tent today. After dropping off your GREEN PASSPORTS many of you filled us in on what you are doing, or are going to do, to make a difference in your life and our city. Annalea, Brad and I are amazed by how many of you bike or walk to work, use cloth shopping bags and recycle everything you can get your hands on. Thank you to all of you who let us take your photo and share with the rest of the city what you are doing to engage the change!
Claire is just starting up her own e-recruitment business called "Temp-O-Rarley Yours." It's an online way to hire and place temps, and since it's paperless everyone saves some trees!
Chris biked to the festival!
Oriane, Maurice and Lindsay are a power trio of green goodness!
Cindy grows her own food and is slowly replacing her perrenials with veggies!
Kirsten is a vegan cyclist - she biked to the festival too!
Robyn is on a mission to find green cosmetics and household supplies!
Ryan walks or bikes to work!

Wow, I’m encouraged by the different ways that people are really trying to be more green. I think that my commitment to change is going to include finding and using more eco-friendly household cleaners and garden/yard care products. Change really does come about one decision at a time.
I’m really encouraged by all the positive change’s people are making in their lives! Together we can make a difference.
