How can one individual effectively help reduce carbon emissions world wide?
Think globally, then take action locally.

Four free seminars throughout the day. Each seminar repeats every hour.
Learn how to reduce your carbon footprint by
  • Choosing locally sourced food, year round. If each U.S. citizen ate 1 meal/week made from locally sourced, organic food, we would save 1 million barrels of oil per week! Sign up for the Mill Valley General Store's Local Food Co-op & eat seasonally through the winter. Presenters - Jeff Taylor, Tuscarora Organic Growers Co-op & Cheryl Wade, Mill Valley General Store
  • Heat your home with biomass. Learn how using a biomass stove will save you money on your heat bill & reduce your carbon footprint. Tax credits available. George Peters, Baltimore Biomass - Presenter.
  • Use alternative energy to provide your electricity. Find out how easy & inexpensive it can be. Clean Currents - Presenters.
  • Fuel your vehicle with biodiesel. Ilya Goldberg, Baltimore Biodiesel, Presenter
Top it all off by purchasing lunch from The Curry Shack. The Curry Shack will be featuring a lunch menu highlighting the goodness of locally sourced food.
