Win a Green Festival Getaway! « It’s Getting Hot In Here

The last time I was in Chicago I had just finished a sixty-hour train ride from San Francisco, only to find out I missed my connecting train to Boston and so would be forced to stay in Chicago for the day. As I walked down the sidewalk to find a burrito, I noticed herds of people walking towards a thumping noise. Before I could blink and say, “wind power,” I found myself in the middle of mosh-pit at Lollapalloza ’06.

What does this have to do with climate change? Nothing. What is the only better way to experience Chicago besides Lollapalloza? Green Festival 2007! Who can win two free tickets, carbon-offset airfare, hotel stay, and backstage passes by completing a simple survey about what climate change issues you’d like to learn more about? You!
