Alex Steffen, co-founder and Executive Editor of the popular
environmental weblog WorldChanging.com (See also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WorldChanging):
HOW TO CHANGE THE WORLD & BUILD A BRIGHT GREEN FUTURE.
Tuesday February 28, Reception, 5:30 pm, Program 6:00 pm
The Commonwealth Club, 595 Market Street @ 2d St, San Francisco
COST: $8 members, $15 nonmembers, INFO: http://www.commonwealthclub.org/mlf.html
Here's Eric Corey Freed's invite:
Want to change the world? You're not alone. Indeed, millions of people are now working together in loosely-joined networks, creating dynamic new tools, models and ideas for building a bright green future -- a future sustainable, just and prosperous. Alex Steffen, Executive Editor of award-winning Worldchanging.com, shares snapshhots from the frontlines of innovation -- from sustainable cities to landmine-detecting flowers, from drinking straws that filter water to democratic software. Another world is possible, say antiglobalization activists. Another world is already here, says Worldchanging, and Steffen will give you the guided tour of how you can make a difference.
Ready to be inspired? See you there! (I'm an occasional contributor, regular reader and big fan of WorldChanging. Check it out; you will be too.)
