    The Green Expo, Tennessee's largest sustainability event, will showcase the newest and most diverse green products and services available in the marketplace. The Expo will feature an arena full of exhibitors, as well as expert presentations on the PPG Porter Paints Stage on green topics such as green housekeeping products, water conservation and saving energy. There will be product demonstrations from green companies such as Pella Windows, Lightwave Solar Electric and Best Home and Energy Inspections, as well as exhibits of electric cars, green pest control services, electric scooters, dry cleaning services and local environmental organizations looking for new members. All attendees are invited to compete for prizes in the on-site scavenger hunt by CoolPeopleCare and to visit the green art display by students at David Lipscomb campus School, and Belmont University. Reusable Kroger grocery bags and Icelandic Glacier water will be given out to attendees free as long as supplies last.

    Organic yogurt entrepreneur, author and chair of Climate Counts Gary Hirshberg, will speak Thursday, April 2, at 7:00pm in Allen Arena as the kick-off event for the Expo. As president and CE-Yo of Stonyfield Farms, the world's largest organic yogurt company, Hirshberg has been at the forefront of movements working for environmental and social transformation for 30 years.
