Sustainable Living Roadshow (SLR) is a caravan of educators and entertainers who tour the country in a fleet of renewable fuel vehicles to empower communities and individuals to utilize sustainable living strategies for a healthier planet. 
Visiting k-12 schools, university campuses and community festivals across the United States, the caravan sets up off-the-grid eco-carnivals with experiential learning villages, featuring workshops, speakers, and entertainment.
SLR believes that progressive shifts in life-style and stewardship are required to maintain a healthy planet. We also believe that these shifts should be celebrated and learning about them should be fun. We have developed many environments, experiences and networks that focus on making sustainability education something to be enjoyed. If people can smile, laugh and develop closer relationships to their local community while learning and enjoying the festival, our experience shows the information resonates more effectively and is more readily retained.

Localizing a global culture
I had an interesting talk with a fellow marcher the other night. (Hello! From Delaware, the first of the original 13 colonies. We’re marching through Newark, then down to Darlington, Maryland, and onwards towards Baltimore. Our feet are tired and our muscles are sore, but we carry on, carry on, carry on.) During our skillshare [...]
Dispatches from the March
In the Northeast regions of North America, fall is beginning its yearly cascade of colors. Trees are slowly segueing from verdant opulence to their more bright and bold outfits, their outstretched limbs gaining hues of yellow, orange, ochre, sienna. Towns are beginning harvest time as they watch the days wane and the air turns crisper [...]
