Green Festival (part two)
As I wrote in my last blog, the Green Festival in San Francisco had many interesting things to get informed about. Not only different products and businesses, but also about different alternative media that are blooming everywhere and are becoming more recognizable. The “green” media are television/radio channels, shows and programs, but also magazines, online magazines and newspapers. They all in there own way give light to the latest ideas and trends emerging in our culture. They discuss politics, religion, different cultures, ecological aspects, arts, news, and basically all issues that affect our everyday lives.
Some of the alternative media I’m really happy to have heard about are:
1. Planet Green (Discovery Channel)
2. Plenty (Magazine)
3. Mother Jones (Online Magazine)
4. Linktv (Television)
5. Democracy Now (TV shows and Radio)
I must say that being on the US West Coast, has made me learn a lot about permaculture and how to go “green”.
This blog is the last one from the US. Next time I will be in Istanbul. I think it will be a bit hard to go back to the city, the traffic, and my normal environment. Because my perception of things has gone up and down, and I’m sure it will be a challenge…
