May 15 – 18 – Green Earth Expo 2008
Green Earth Expo 2008 is anticipated as the world's largest sustainable commerce and lifestyle tradeshow with over 50,000 attendees and 500 exhibitors expected. The Expo will run from Thursday, May 15th to Sunday, May 18th at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida – the greenest convention center in the U.S.
 
Green Earth Expo 2008 is different from other Green shows. The Green Movement has been largely a local grassroots effort, pioneered by many passionate, hard-working visionaries. Thanks to their work, Green has reached critical mass, and it is time for an Exposition to bring together the entire supply chain – from manufacturer to consumer – to further this cause.
 
We have chosen to make the Expo an international affair. We seek leaders in Green and Sustainable business to promote their offerings and create new partnerships. We also seek the consumers who are looking for ways to Green their lives and make their own individual efforts to preserve our Earth. Our mission is to set the standard for Green and Sustainable Commerce and to demonstrate the ease and benefits of Living Green.
