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!

About Josh

Josh Arnold can think of no greater gift than to be alive in a time of unprecedented crisis and opportunity. Josh is often found in a state of Blessed Unrest – compelled to do all in his power to create conditions conducive to life for his fellow human and non-human cohabitants. Josh sees his work in the context of a Great Turning – a movement that uses the creation of an environmentally sustainable, socially just, and spiritually fulfilling world as the guiding principal of all its actions. After graduating from Wheaton College with a degree in “Global Sustainability”, Josh started the nonprofit organization Global Awareness Local Action (G.A.L.A.) to help make sustainable living fun and practical. Josh is unwaveringly committed to helping the Lakes Region, NH area become a vibrant example of sustainable community. But G.A.L.A. is not all that Josh spends his time on. In the summers, Josh travels around the United States with Clean Vibes – a music festival “greening” company. In addition, Josh is a sales representative for Recycled Office Products, Inc. and helps offices reduce their eco-footprint by offering a wide selection of post-consumer products. And finally, if you happen to visit Wolfeboro, NH and get a whiff of fried food, there is a good chance you just missed Josh – his car runs on Waste Vegetable Oil.
