 EDIATE RELEASE: [August 18, 2009]\nVerde Ya Summit and Festival at the
  Pickleweed Center San Rafael CA on Saturday October 24th 2009\n[San R
 afael California] – As part of its continuing effort to promote heal
 th and wellness in the community, the Office of Marin County Superviso
 r Steve Kinsey has been working diligently with community members and 
 grassroots organizations to convene the first Bay Area Spanish languag
 e summit on global warming. This campaign and summit will focus on the
  connectivity between climate change, carbon footprint, community heal
 th-equity, and living sustainably among the Latino Communities of Mari
 n and the Bay Area.\nWe welcome San Francisco Bay Area community membe
 rs and organizations to join us in kicking off this campaign and summi
 t on October 24th 2009 at the Pickleweed Center in San Rafael, Marin C
 ounty California.\nThe Marin County Board of Supervisors in partnershi
 p with Parent Services Project, KDTV Univision, KFSF TeleFutura, Binat
 ional Health Initiative, community members of the of Canal neighborhoo
 d, Marin First 5, and other community partners, we will surely make th
 is a successful event.\nBoth the campaign and summit will use a multi 
 pronged proactive approach to demystify the green-movement, sustainabi
 lity, promote traditional health and wellness and green jobs among the
  Latino community. This new Latino-Indigenous green movement will reig
 nite community indigenous values systems such as traditional, healing,
  foods, green jobs, and promoting the concepts of reducing, recycling 
 and reusing.\n\nAs part of the Viviendo Verde Ya campaign and summit, 
 the community has also developed the concept of “Promotoras Verdes�
 � or “Green Promoters” whose purpose is to demystify and educate t
 he community regarding the green movement, sustainability, ecological 
 knowledge, health equity, physical health and global warming.\n\nThe s
 ummit itself consists of Spanish language workshops focusing on physic
 al health, exercise, water conservation, organic food preparation, alt
 ernative energy and workshops on current and upcoming eco-legislation.
 \nWe expect that our summit efforts will create 1) an ongoing platform
  to showcase grass roots community members and highlight their eco-wor
 k already taking place in the community. 2) Initiate more climate chan
 ge consciousness and urgency among the Latinos-Indigenous communities 
 via green outreach or “green promotores” 3) Continue to support ed
 ucational eco-workshops on such topics as watershed, energy conservati
 on, agriculture, community health-equity and wellness, etc. by the “
 green promotoras”\n4) conduct a membership drive to the participatin
 g green organizations or create new Latino-Indigenous base ones 5) pra
 ctical immediate steps to reduce global warming such as a Bay Area onc
 e a month boycott of personal vehicles 6) energy conservation strategi
 es and reduction of carbon footprint within each respective community 
 7) Educate and create a consciousness between community health-equity 
 and global warming.\nDavid Escobar\nAide to Supervisor Steve Kinsey\nM
