To introduce you to this event and the enormity of it, it is first necessary to understand the influences that created the need and excitement for such an event. In today’s society, “Green” is the newest movement of our time. Everyone is becoming more conscious of our environment and wondering how to protect and guard it for future generations. Al Gore received incredible accolades and numerous awards for his film An Inconvenient Truth depicting global warming. What is going on in the environment is affecting everyone, and the answer today is to “Go Green”, become environmentally and eco-friendly, and to start reducing our carbon footprint.
We, at the Greater Port Jefferson Chamber of Commerce, are proactive and Green-Minded. We are here to educate, inform, entertain, and enlighten people on how to make choices for a greener world. This is consistent with the green movement that helps promote sustainable ways of living.
