My wife, kids and I talked about getting serious about less energy consumption.

I had a crazy deadline this weekend and could only Step It Up before this event got into full swing - but I paid a visit to my friends who were working at the event and I took a picture at home during my afternoon workbreak!
Stepping It Up on The Promenade in Santa Monica

?Earth Day on the Promenade,? was the largest Step It Up event in California, with a total of nearly 15,000 people present at various times during day at one of the premier shopping destinations in the LA Region. We had 80 exhibitors filling the Promenade that provided practical info to consumers about how to save energy and reduce CO2 emissions. There were displays of alternative fuel vehicles including hybrids, electric vehicles, electric bikes and scooters, bio-diesel Smart Car, Zap and Zenn neighborhood electric vehicles, plus solar panel installers, and more.
We distributed thousands of Earth Day Resource Guides asking everyone to support the Step It Up campaign, as well as to be carbon neutral themselves.
We also got coverage on the 5 pm news on NBC4 and will appear in a special report this week, also on NBC4.
The entire event was made carbon neutral by a contribution to CarbonCounter.org that was funded by booth fees we charged the exhibitors.
