Capital Area District Library: Sustainable Living Exhibition

We have chosen Inconvenient Truth, by Al Gore, as our countywide read for 2008.  Discussions of the book will be taking place in all of our 14 branches and will be featured in area bookstores.  As a culminating event, we decided on a panel of three presenters which we hope can range from an overview of global warming (Steve Curwood, author and host of the NPR program Living on Earth); to an idea of what a community can do ( David Konkle, Energy Coordinator for the City of Ann Arbor); to a very personal account of living sustainably (author Judith Levine, Not Buying It:  My Year Without Shopping).

 

The event will be at the Lansing Center, March 19, 2008, from 6-9 pm.

 

Along with the panel program, we are inviting ten exhibitors whom we feel support sustainable living and are able to offer guidance to individuals.  Each exhibitor will have an 8-foot table (electrical hookup available).  We plan to have exhibit time from 6-7, followed by a panel presentation and question period from 7-8:30 and ending with a time for further exhibit visits and author signings from 8:30-9.  The exhibitors’ names will be included in publicity for the event.

    Hi
    You are inviting ten exhibitors whom you feel support sustainable living and are able to offer guidance to individuals. We fit both categories, that of a sustainable product and we spend our marketing dollars educating, advising and coaching people about insulating their homes. Please consider us for participation in this event at Lansing Center, March 19, 2008, from 6-9 pm.

    Thank you

    Sincerely
