New York, NY -November 7, 2007 - The New York Post joins hundreds of eco-innovative exhibitors and speakers in helping to make New York greener at the city's first ever Go Green Expo on April 26th and April 27th at the Hilton New York Hotel. With an anticipated attendance of more than 10,000, the two day celebration will highlight the latest in energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly products and services, interactive seminars and speeches, as well as an eco-film festival, and chic to be green fashion show. As part of parent company News Corporation's commitment to engaging audiences and business partners on energy and climate change issues, the New York Post will highlight Expo exhibitors in a special section on Green Living that will be featured in-paper. This unprecedented partnership and subsequent advertising platform is slated to reach over 2.3 million readers in the New York metropolitan area.
Created as a forum for increasing awareness of energy and environmental challenges, showcasing green products and services and educating the public and corporate world, Go Green Expo will be divided into separate eco-pavilions including: transportation; energy alternatives; sustainable home design; green investing; organic food and wine; green office; health & beauty and an interactive children's learning center.
"We are undoubtedly at a critical time in history where people, planet and profit are properly aligning in an effort to combat the current climate crisis," says Bradford Rand, CEO Go Green Expo. "We hope to enlighten, entertain and educate consumers and business owners with ways in which they can do their part. Having such an influential partner as the New York Post is a tremendous way to communicate the important message of going green."
In addition to guest speakers and exhibitors from the nation's most influential eco-minded business leaders, the event will boast the latest in green design and function. Designed and executed by Stetson, a green exposition and tradeshow contractor, the event will feature 100% recycled visqueen flooring, 100% compostable and biodegradable wastebasket liners, 100% compostable and biodegradable table top coverings, recycled material booth ID signs, biodegradable banner material, soy and water based inks and natural gas powered forklift and an extensive recycling and waste management program that takes environmental and social ramifications into account by utilizing local donation programs.
Publisher of the New York Post, Paul Carlucci, said, "Partnering with the Go Green Expo is an exciting opportunity to reach our readers and the New York community on an issue of increasing relevance. This is also a great chance to provide our advertisers with a platform to connect with their customers."
More than 20 of the nation's top eco-minded non-profit groups will also be on hand to participate in the inaugural Go Green Expo event with educational booths and noteworthy speakers from organizations including: Riverkeeper, World Wildlife Fund, New York Restoration Project (NYRP), The Council on the Environment (CENYC), American Forest Foundation, The Rainforest Alliance and Habitat for Humanity to name a few.

In addition to supporting this event, The New York Post is committed to reducing its own impacts on climate change. The Post uses recycled paper and has measured its carbon emissions in order to set targets for its own reductions. The paper has also switched to more energy-efficient lighting in its offices and printing plant, and is working to further reduce the non-renewable energy use of its facilities and transportation fleet.

“The U.S. release of the acclaimed feature-film Dreaming Lhasa (http://www.dreaminglhasa.com/) takes place this Friday, April 13 in New York City.
Dreaming Lhasa is a moving, modern-day adventure story of Tibetan exiles in Dharamsala, India–home of the Dalai Lama and Tibetan Government-in-Exile.

YOUR ATTENDANCE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

Please come see this remarkable film while it is playing in New York for one week only and if you can't make it, please recommend it to your friends and family. The larger the attendance is at these early screenings (in particular this opening weekend), the easier it will be for the film to receive wider distribution. Spread the word and help support Tibetan cinema.

Creative Collective for Gobal Healing this Sun, 3:30

Sat, 14 Oct 2006 05:35:26 GMT

Hello New Yorkers! Bring your open hearts to a class I am facilitating this Sunday @ Centerpoint Yoga Studios (324 Lafayette St, 7th flr at Bleeker) 3:30-6:30 PM, $30. Details below. Love, CC In this class we will create a circle where we combine our creative, healing energies to manifest greater peace and wellbeing on the planet. Each session we will use the creative process: visual, dance, voice etc., for the purpose of global healing. Not only will we be supporting the earth, but we will be supporting each other wherever we are in our own healing journey.This class is for people who believe that the collective power of love and creativity can transform the planet into peace. First class HEALING OF EXPLOITED CHILDREN: Creating a template of safety and refuge. We will spend much of the circles cultivating a vibration of unconditional love. We will deal with the anger and pain that may be stirred up around this theme. This circle asks that the participants have a strong intention to let go of anger, pain and fear to foster love. Group members must be willing to honor vulnerability, humility and the softness that will emerge through this practice. There will be deep sharing, transformation and cooperative work. We will be creating new ceremonies for what's needed NOW on the planet. How is contact with ourselves and with each other the foundation for peace? How can collective creativity and love inspire change? We do not know the answer, only that the process is part of the solution. The Creative Collective for Global Healing: Active meditation plus creativity equals healing. Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to attend. Love, CC 917-685-7889 www.cctreadway.com BIO: CC is an energy healer specializing in Brennan Healing Science (barbarabrennan.com), channeling and the arts. She has a private healing practice in NYC.

My two cents on the "Jack of All Trades" pitch

http://ZenPitch.gaia.com — Sun, 02 Jul 2006 22:52:06 GMT

Hello All:

If you are doing more than one thing to pay the rent, (which I am and many of my clients are too!) may I suggest a simple concept that has worked very well. I call it "A Pitch for Every Niche." When I see all of the things that you are doing, Little Dree, I am IMMEDIATELY drawn to the Vegan Chef. I do not think I have ever met a Vegan Chef and I've met LOTS of people. And I think that people are started to understand that idea that we are what we eat, so now is a great time to be marketing those types of services. In my experience, it's easier for people to remember one thing at first, "Hey, there's Little Dree, isn't she the Vegan Chef?" Then, as they get to know you, you can let them know about your other talents. You can have your filmmaker pitch and your ceramic artist pitch and any other pitch you choose. I find that if you introduce too many things too soon, people get confused.

That's just my two cents and I'd love to hear what others think!

Re: INTRO LauraZenPitch

http://littledree.gaia.com — Sun, 02 Jul 2006 16:30:08 GMT

Welcome and thanks so much for joining!

I can't wait to hang out together - I met one fellow Zaadz New Yorker at the screening of my film this Thursday. What a joy to meet in the flesh - now I'm even more inspired to organise something in August!! It could be getting together at someone's event (performance, screening, etc.), or I might send out a mail who wants to meet for dinner at a vegan restaurant or....working on it, suggestions always welcome!

Laura, I think your concept is great. I'm fighting through this myself as a 'one man band'. As a filmmaker/ ceramic artist/ illustrator/ writer/ vegan chef I try to stay as close to my truth in everything I do as much as I can - finding the balance between keeping silent and being 'preachy' (they both get me in trouble). I think the more people that get/have/create a chance to do so (in their lives and within their jobs), the happier we can all become.

It's still a big struggle to make the living I would like/need to make persueing that 'attitude' but I feel blessed everyday with the freedom it allows me. I've learned to answer that 'But which of those things is your real profession?' question with; 'I'm a Jacky of all trades, master of some.'

I'll leave you with a little example of finding my balance in 'spreading the word about healthy food' - have a great day! Dree

I've just found Zaadz and I am so happy to be here!!

My partner and I co-founded a company in 2002, which is growing strong!! The whole time I've been in NYC (since 1989) I've always wanted to work for myself. I could never really get the finances to work out properly though!! I always joke that we will be yet another 10 year over night success.

My passion in life, my biggest dream really, would be that no one would ever have to work at a job that they hate just to pay the rent. I believe that there is a way to support yourself and to make a positive contribution to the world at the same time. I'm currently reading a book called Authentic: How to Make a Living By Being Yourself, by Neil Crofts. I highly recommend this book.

I've just introduced a new concept in my business which I am calling The Zen Pitch, which is all about training people to talk about their passions in a way that is concise, compelling and authentic. What I have found is that sometimes people are shy about talking about what they do, so it's tough for them to get enough business to keep doing their own thing. Would love to hear your thoughts on this concept.

Best,

LauraZenPitch

Ola New Yorkers, I'm Amy and right now I'm living in this crazy apartment on Long Island with a guerilla production crew making a ground breaking, transformative pilot for television. Oh yeah. It's about what it means to be be/become a man in today's culture and we're blowing our own minds as well as the minds of the young men who stepped up to the plate to use their lives as our "subjects" I'm shooting until mid July so I've hardly been on the Zaadz since I joined, but I wanted to respond to Little Dree's intro, and say Hello. I'm HERE! I want to HANG OUT with the New York Zaadzters as soon as principle photography ends. I'll be back in the city editing this baby starting the 20th of July, and while that is an intense process, it's not necessarily 24/7 like this part is. I saw one of the NY members who called herself an Urban Hippie, and it made me laugh, because I'm working with 5 young men between the ages of 22 and 26. While I know a lot about them, they don't know much about me. The other day one of them said to me "When I describe you to people, I say she's like a...modern hippie." Delightful. Concise. Little Dree, thanks for the invite. Glad to be here. Here's to Freedom...the original concept at the core of the holiday this week-end May we all enjoy it to the fullest. Warm regards, Amy
