Lots of deep learnings
for me at day one of the
BRIGHT GREEN FUTURE CONFERENCE
at PRICE CENTER UC LA JOLLA.
Teamwork has put SAN DIEGO
in the National Spotlight for
impending funds from the
Stimulus package.
Teamwork is the key of our
our Bright Green Future.
This was the message
that stuck in my head
after hearing BYRON WASHOM,
Director, Stategic Energy Initatives,
who works full time for UC LA JOLLA.
virtually.
Formerly of the WORLD BANK,
WASHOM showed us a film made
by local UC Students that showed
a why the campus,and our bioregion
are at the forefront of emerging
Green Trends.
PANAMA BARTHOLOMY,
who has the ear of those at the Sacrammento
Capital, also gave kudus and high praises for San Diego
as a leading city on the map on the new green economy.
He is the advisor to the CALIFORNIA ENERGY COMMISSION.
HATS OFF TO
CAROLYN CHASE

CAROLYN CHASE, lead inspiration behind
the BRIGHT GREEN CONFERENCE,
with PANAMA BARTHOLOMY
Advisor for the CALIFORNIA ENERGY COMMISSION.
Batthoolomy was a sparkling MC for the morning
Plenary of Day One. He and KEEP the BEET MEDIA STAR

and he returned the favor.

for a fabulous well funded and sparkling
event. Among her sponsors for the first
Bright Green Future Conference were
the RADY US SAN DIEGO SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT,
BARONA MISSION INDIANS, ABC 10 News,
and a host of others. THOMAS ACKERMAN
of SPIRIT GRAPHICS
and PRINTING, INC, did a great job
on a first class conference 28 oage program
filled with detailed info on presenters, bio notes,
and their projects.
The program brochure and the conference
itself was a who's who of the the players
coming to the table. There were more than
84 speakers and a very good attendance
Day One.
Majorly sponsored
as is her other yearly extravanganza,
THE SAN DIEGO EARTH FAIR,
the largest Earth Day event in the US,
CAROLYN CHASE got kudus from
KEEP THE BEET MEDIA STAR,
The World's FIrst Talking Beet Plant,

ANTHONY ZOLEZZI, Sustainability Expert, one of my Green Heroes. Anthony is authorof PESTICIDE FREE KIDS, and is a significant voice for a GREEN HOLLYWOOD.Read my blog about Anthony here and be sure to read some of his own blogs:
ANTHONY ZOLEZZI is one of the main inspirations behind
GREENOPS, a new Recycling Redemption project
that launches on Earth Day. GrEENOPOLIS is the
Social Network site. I am sure there are going
to be companies using plastic blottles for years.
This is a great project to make sure that those
producing drinks and other products in plastic
begin responsible for a program that sees
the bottles they sell are returned to the store
that sells it.
