Conscious Goods Alliance Powered by Conscious Consumers
(CSRwire) LOS ANGELES, CA - March 6, 2007 - CSRwire, Delicious Living Magazine, Dr
Bronners Magic Soap, Kopali Organics, New Chapter Organics, Pet Promise
and Sweet Leaf Tea, all conscious and fair commerce companies, announced
today their participation in the Conscious Goods Alliance which will
tour throughout the United States on a bus that has been converted to run
on vegetable oil, a carbon neutral, renewable and cleaner alternative to
petroleum based fuels.
The Alliance will be visiting Whole Foods Market stores, local schools,
universities, farmers markets and other community centers to promote
sustainable, compassionate and
transparent business practices and products. The first stop on tour will
be The Expo West Natural Products Show in Anaheim, California on March
9-11, 2007.
This year's tour will last one year and these mission-aligned,
ecologically and socially conscious businesses will tour 180 Whole Foods
Market stores displaying a variety of products that are good for those who
use them, those who grow and make them and the planet we all share. The
Conscious Goods Alliance "Veggie Bus" is a true eco showroom and best
exemplifies the tour’s slogan Consciousness on the Move. The mobile
headquarters, greened by greenhome.com, features photovoltaic solar
electricity, sustainable bamboo and palm wood interiors, an all-organic
renewable energy kitchen and dozens of other sustainable solutions
For a second year the Eco Showroom "Veggie Bus" and its crew of social
entrepreneurs and media artists will raise consumers awareness while
promoting conscious products and brands. "we want to inspire people to
support products that are consistent with their values", say Zak Zaidman
and Stephen Brooks, co-founders of the Conscious Goods Alliance, "what
better way than touring with a collection of conscious companies that feel
the same way".
After Expo West the "Veggie Bus" will tour Southern California, Arizona
and Nevada. Plans include an appearance at Earth Day in San Diego on April
24. Throughout the year the Conscious Goods Alliance will attend All Things
Organic in Chicago, May 8-10, Bonaroo Festival in Manchester Tennessee,
June 8-12, Expo East Natural Products Show in Baltimore, October 4-7,
Green Fest East in Washington D.C., October 13-15, Bioneers Conference in
Santa Rosa, October 20-22 and Green Fest West in San Francisco, November
9-12.
