Green Traveler: Inaugural New York City Green Festival

April 21-22, 2012 -- New York City was the place to be Earth Day weekend as the first annual NYC Green Festival launched at Javits Center North on Manhattan's West Side.

The nation's premier sustainability festival hosted a successful Big Apple event as thousands packed the convention center to hear speakers such as Van Jones and Russell Simmons discuss the green economy, browse the latest eco-friendly cars from Corporate Innovator sponsor Ford Motor Company, and check out the hundreds of exhibitors promoting everything green you can think of.

The Green Festival, which takes place in cities across the country to promote a sustainable economy, is a project of Green America and Global Exchange.
