Those ecologic fairs are a good option for the people who want to approach a new lifestyle respecting the environment and the life itself. I hope that people understand the importance of these events and try to change their habits to seek a better life and protect the environment.

These fairs are a super great idea, and I would really love to visit one some time. A few years ago I went ot a permaculture convention in Forest View, Oregon, and it was absolutely mind-blowing. Besides just meeting tons of really cool people that I had a lot in common with, the information and atmosphere were just incredible!
