DESCRIPTION:Kevin Danaher\nCo-founder, Global Exchange\n\nBuilding the Green Economy: 
 Success Stories from the Grassroots\n\nAfter centuries of economic activity 
 based on extraction, exploitation, and depletion, we now face undeniable 
 environmental threats. New business models that save or restore natural 
 resources are critical. But how can we translate that insight into more 
 sustainable practices? \n\nBuilding the Green Economy, a new book edited by 
 Kevin Danaher, Shannon Biggs, and Jason Mark, shows how community groups, 
 families, and individual citizens have taken action to protect their food 
 and water, clean up their neighborhoods, and strengthen their local 
 economies. Their unlikely victories—over polluters, unresponsive 
 bureaucracies, and unexamined routines—dramatize the opportunities and 
 challenges facing the local green economy movement.\n\nDrawing on their 
 extensive experience at Global Exchange and elsewhere, the authors also lay 
 out strategies for a more successful green movement and describe how 
 communities have protected their victories from legal and political 
 challenges.  Copies of the new book will be on sale following the 
 program.\n\nFree and open to the public.  Part of the ongoing “Other 
 Voices” television series produced by Peninsula Peace and Justice Center. 
  The program will be broadcast live on Mid-Peninsula Community Media cable 
 TV Channel 27 and rebroadcast throughout October. \n
