Green Festival, the nation’s largest green consumer living event will make its fifth trip to America’s capital this year on November 8 & 9, 2008 at the Washington, D.C. Convention Center, as the new administration prepares to set up shop. This year, the festival will highlight environmental sustainability issues that have been so relevant in headlines and town halls across the nation. While the country finds itself at a turning point in terms of solving significant environmental concerns, Green Festival will share practical, life changing ideas that only a show of its caliber can provide.

A joint project of Global Exchange and Co-op America, two leading nonprofit organizations dedicated to environmental and social justice for more than twenty-five years, Green Festival is a forum to explore and build sustainable solutions for communities and the environment.  The Washington, D.C. Green Festival will host 150 visionary speakers, 350 local and national green businesses, and dozens of community and nonprofit groups. All exhibitors must meet strict standards set by Co-op America, guaranteeing the highest level of social and environmental responsibility in everything that enters the convention center.
