Buy a Ticket, Plant a Tree
In Ticketing is proud to sponsor the "Tree for Ticket" program for Walk the Talk. For every ticket purchased for this event, In Ticketing will sponsor the planting of one tree. Each tree will sequester an average of 50 lbs. of carbon per year, which is equivalent to the carbon emissions from driving a vehicle for 50 miles. Each tree will live for approximately 40 years, which means it can withdraw a ton of carbon from the atmosphere. The trees will be planted by indigenous villagers in developing nations who are reclaiming their lands and reawakening native forests using bio-assisted regeneration. To plant more trees and for additional information, visit http://www.globalcooling.

Kyeann Sayer wrote a less than glowing review of this event over on the Treehugger site - liked some of the fashion, but not impressed with the event management. Better luck next year!
