EPIC Vancouver Sustainable Expo

19May11

EPIC is a green living consumer expo. This year it was held at the Vancouver Convention center in downtown, a beautiful venue easily capable of such an event. I was fortunate enough to get a pass to the event to explore it and learn as much as I could, and I did just that. First [...]
