Organic Beer, Skeptics and Green Strippers. The Sustainable Brands Road Trip takes shape.
Things are shaping up for the Sustainable Brands 2011 Road Trip to Monterey...
Tell me where to go at Sustainable Brands 2011 and I could be bringing you a California Green Souvenir.
It’s official. I’m booked to return to the biggest green marketing event in North America – SB’11 in Monterey. But what will I see? Who shall I meet? What toxins should I ingest to effectively anesthetize myself against the unending torrents of sustainable marketing bumf? This is where I call ...
