This year Vermont Natural Resources Council is celebrating a milestone event—50 years of protecting and restoring Vermont’s natural resources–educating, inspiring and activating Vermonters to champion all that we love about our beautiful state. The 50th Anniversary Celebration is designed to bring together a thousand Vermonters to envision a better future. We’ve chosen President Obama’s 2009 White House Green Jobs Czar, Van Jones, as the keynote speaker for our September 22nd 2012 Celebration at Shelburne Farms’ magnificent Coach Barn. Van Jones is co-founder and president of Rebuild the Dream, a non-profit organization focusing on “green-collar jobs” and how cities can implement job-creating climate solutions. After his talk, Jones will answer questions fielded by area college and university students – our leaders for the next 50 year. VNRC advisors Bill McKibben, Gus Speth, Will Raap, Maude Barlow and John Ewing will be signing books and mingling during the event that also features lively music, local fare and brew. Thank you to our major sponsors: Shelburne Farms, the Lintilhac Foundation, Pomerleau Real Estate, Gardener's Supply Co., VEIC, Ben & Jerry's, Danforth Pewter, Middlebury College, The Point, SunCommon, Vermont Creamery, Wolavers, Cabot Creamery, Hunger Mountain Co-op, Lake Champlain Chocolates.
