My (Old) Presentation

Hey, it's Jen, sorry this is so late.

So on Green Eats Picnic Day, 11/12 I reported on two San Francisco current events:

1) http://www.greenfestivals.org/san-francisco/

GreenFest is and event put on by Global Exchange and Green America. It calls itself a "global movement" (read:traveling US fair) that took place on Nov. 13-15 at the San Francisco Concourse. It was all about "injecting hope" back into Green politics with food, wine, clothing, etc. While I'm being snarky about it now, it's actually a pretty cool thing; since it's all about the venders, it focuses on local, practical and incredibly diverse solution to the global crises we now face, even if it's a bit smug.

2) http://newsblaze.com/story/2009110907370300002.pr/topstory.html

San Francisco has authorized an alternative energy provider to PG&E called RFP/Local Power that aims to provide 51% renewable energy by 2017. Potentially really great.
