Wild Gift Project
Go Green Organization
Mission, Goals & Results
The mission of Go Green is to act as a catalyst within popular culture to get the public excited about ‘going green’ and taking actions in their daily life to reduce their impact on the environment, conserve energy, and to choose a ‘sustainable’ lifestyle. The first year goals are to create the Go Green Organization, market its message through presentation to select communities, and to research and submit a book proposal for a ‘Green Girl’s Guide’, a chic book targeting teenagers and young women, giving them resources on how to ‘live green’ and make green decisions. The long term goal of Go Green is the development and growth of an online Go Green community and a center to train Go Green leaders to replicate the organization.

Our (Not So) Pristine National Parks: 70 Contaminants and Counting
Thought you would all be interested to see this Treehugger post --
"Our (Not So) Pristine National Parks: 70 Contaminants and Counting"
The verdict is in and it ain't pretty: Our cherished, "pristine" national parks and monuments are wallowing in filth - more specifically, a wide variety of pollutants such as heavy metals, airborne contaminants and pesticides. In a piece for the AP, Matthew Brown

How are you? I'm getting excited for GreenBuild! I am working on putting together a meet up for the Wild gift folks during the conference, since there will be quite a contingent of us there. Right now I am thinking that it might work best to all meet up after the conference ends on Friday the 21st after the final keynote for lunch. The keynote ends at 1, so we could all head out together after that and have some time to catch up and talk about our experience at the conference. Would that work for you? Let me know!

Also People for American Way support new (and potential?) office holders.
I hope you had restful travel back to DC. It was a such a pleasure to boat with you this past week and I hope to see you in the Spring in West Virginia or in DC for a tour of the house!
Check out river trips on the New River with my Dad's company - North American River Runners. www.narr.com
And, also Lori McKenna's music (with new and old songs such as "Fireflies."

I can feel the spirit of the Middle Fork in the crisp morning air here in California. :-)

I saw this posting on the grist about the cosmetics industry and thought of you. http://www.grist.org/feature/2008/05/02/index.html
Hope all is well!

Sorry I missed you in Boston. Hopefully our paths will cross soon. I've done that train route before... was feeling a bit stir crazy after 6 hours or so, but it beats sitting in traffic! Can't think of another form of transportation where you can play the guitar, drink a beer, or keep your laptop plugged in.

I look forward to exploiting this great opportunity to exchange information and encourage each other in our efforts to promote a sustainable world.
