Editor's note: Since we missed the weekend review last week, we thought we'd give you a double shot this week. <\/em><\/p>\n

On Memorial Day Weekend, Americans gear up for summer with BBQs, road trips, and camping. This year, for a twist on the Memorial Day camping trip, I attended the Sasquatch Music Festival<\/a> at the Gorge Ampitheater<\/a> in the middle of Washington. The twist was that the festival was carbon neutral, and so was our transportation.<\/p>\n

The Gorge Ampitheater is an impressive venue. On the edge of the Columbia River Gorge, the sun sets just behind the stage and the seating is on grass-covered hillside. The view is spectacular, and since Michael Franti and Spearhead were playing, I had to go.<\/p>\n

I was thrilled to find out that the concert was carbon-neutral, through a partnership with Sustainable Energy Partner's Carbon Harmony<\/a> program (which we covered here<\/a>). And since my boyfriend and I just got our "volksvegan<\/a>" waste vegetable oil powered VW van up and running, we made most of the trip carbon-neutral as well!<\/p>\n
