"Green Your Theme Seattle!" the Most Comprehensive and Creative "Green" Networking Event of Event Planners, Vendors, Venues & Suppliers

Seattle, WA, April 29, 2009 --(PR.com)-- “Green Your Theme Seattle!” is hosting an environmentally sustainable, carbon neutralizing, educational networking event on June 1, 2009 at Herban Feast’s eco-friendly venue, Sodo Park. The goal of the event is to leave the smallest possible environmental footprint while connecting event planners and event owners with suppliers of local green resources to stimulate the new green economy.

Attendees will include those interested in connecting with green event resources, such as organizational Green Teams, event planners, event owners, service and product suppliers, green venue reps, sustainability program leaders and more.

This unique event is the first of its kind - both a sustainable and carbon-neutralizing case study in action, as well as an opportunity for organizations to showcase how they successfully greened their events, along with the local vendors and suppliers who helped make it happen. The event will include organic food and sustainable wine sampling, eco-product ideas, green entertainment, education and opportunities to meet vendors and clients who are utilizing green resources and are behind the “greened” event case studies.

“We recognize venues, vendors and product suppliers have made significant commitments to greening their offerings,” said Jessie Upp, Founder of GreenYourTheme.com. “Climate change has finally become a business imperative and this event goes hand-in-hand with educating and connecting planners with vendors to create green events. What better way to make these connections while at an event showcasing how to do it?”

Collect carbon footprint "before and after" stats along with eco-ideas that make the most difference by visiting with experts, suppliers and vendors that have already greened these types of events:

Conventions
Sporting Events
Entertainment Events
Church Events
College Events
Holiday Events
City Events
Corporate Lunch Meetings
Outdoor Festivals

Among others, The Woodland Park Zoo, The Mariners, Herban Feast and Gabriel Scheer of Green Drinks will each present a case study on how they made their own event an overall success without compromising commitment to environmental responsibility.

The event showcases efficiency, recycling, and source-reductions by using a Seattle-based online ticketing agent, Brown Paper Tickets, utilizing social media to invite attendees (no paper required) and hosting it at an eco-friendly event venue. The types of suppliers attending include:
