What do you hope President Obama will do to protect you, your family and the environment during his second term?
At tonight’s Green Inaugural Ball, environmentalists, celebrities, elected officials and “green” citizens will make their wishes known as they celebrate not only Barack Obama’s re-election but their hopes for the planet during his next four years.
To be held at the Newseum in Washington, D.C., the Ball will offer a perfect example of how to throw an eco-friendly party. Guests — who are being encouraged to arrive via mass transportation, of course — will dine on organic, locally grown food, including vegetable sushi rolls, butternut squash shooters, and a variety of other vegan and vegetarian offerings. Personally, I’m looking forward to sipping the “OM-bama” cocktail that’s been created for the evening (the OM stands for Organic Mixology — whatever that is.). There’ll be plenty of entertainment, too, from the likes of Grammy award winners will.i.am and Paul Winter, New Orleans master trombonist Trombone Shorty, Rock & Roll cover band Camp Freddy, and many more.
Wish you could be at the ball but can’t? You can follow it all on Twitter, at #GreenBall2013. And don’t forget to tweet your wish, using #greenwish. National Wildlife Federation, whose guest I will be at the ball, will be showcasing the green wishes all around the Newseum. Make one wish, or a dozen. There’s no limit on what you can wish for!
