Teens Turning Green

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

Tomorrow is Earth Day and I wanted to give a little love to some young teens in Dallas, Texas who are are not only passionate about being green, but are also advocates for sustainable products. They hosted an environmental fair to raise awareness amongst high school students about alternative options that are not only better for the environment but fashionable as well.

On Friday, April 17th, the Keen on Green Environmental Fair sponsored by Whole Foods Market was hosted at Hockaday School in Dallas, Texas from 4:00-7:00 p.m. There was a fashion show with casual clothing from Barney’s and vintage prom dresses modeled by students. There was also a Green Spa with organic and non-toxic skin care and make-up lines, a Green Car show, a speaker from both the national organization Teens Turning Green and the Dallas based Current Energy store.

To help promote the fair and increase awareness about the opportunities for “green” footwear, students of the environmental club made a video.
