# San Francisco Performers and Greens Team up for CLEAN-FUEL CARAVAN CABARET
World music/alternative energy concert to liven-up United Nations World Environment Day, Friday, June 3rd
San Francisco ; Live Afrobeat music, Brazilian drums, gypsy jazz, and political puppets are part of a wild local celebration for World Environment Day, a week-long international conference being held for the first time in the U.S. Top local musicians will perform from a solar-powered stage to raise money for the Bio-Fuel Caravan Coalition, a local group of performers that tour the country performing energy education, music, and public outreach. Headlining the clean-fuel concert – to be held at the Cellspace - is San Francisco’s own 11-piece Afrobeat orchestra, Aphrodesia, which tours the country in a bus powered by vegetable oil. The band will give tours of their bus before their performance. Local Brazilian percussion master Emiliano Benevides will perform with Batucada 1000, a collective of the Bay Area’s top Brazilian musicians. The Big Tadoo Puppet Crew, who also travel in a bio-fuel bus and are members of the Bio-Fuel Caravan Coalition, will perform their acclaimed energy act, Dr. FeelFine’s Cure-all Circus Sideshow. Taarka, a unique ‘seismic gypsy hypno-jazz’ group from Portland, Or., will also perform.
Concert-goers can enjoy organic wine and beer at the event, and witness a panel discussion by noted energy experts and environmental activists. Also planned are an environmental art show, numerous informational booths, and a clean-fuel auto show to be held just outside the CELLspace.

# PV/EV = Solar Power + Electric Vehicles Sat June 4 10:00 a.m.-12 noon Free
Why buy gas and drive a polluting car when you could be in a zero-emission electric vehicle and creating electricity from sunshine? Adding solar photovoltaic (PV) panels to your home and using an electric vehicle (EV) can be a winning combination for both your wallet and the planet.
No gas, no oil, no emissions, and no profits for slimy dictators and terrorists.
Learn more and ride in an EV at the PV/EV Workshop on Saturday, June 4, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon at The Francisco School (a solar-powered school), 300 Gaven Street, between Boylston and Bowdoin, San Francisco, near the interchange of Highways 280 and 101.
Speakers: Sherry Boschert of the San Francisco Electric Vehicle Association (http://www.sfeva.org) and Greg Kennedy of Occidental Power Solar and Cogeneration, a licensed solar contractor.
Please r.s.v.p. to sfeva [at] sfeva.org, or call 415-681-7716.
Solar PV panels create clean electricity. The monthly payment for a PV system can be lower than your previous electricity bill, lowering your monthly costs instantly. And if you drive an electric vehicle (EV), your PV system offsets not just household electricity but costly gasoline, because EVs run on electricity. PV/EV creates power without polluting and provides personal transportation in non-polluting cars.

# June 10 - ? MCLIBEL, A DOCUMENTARY FILM,
PREMIERES IN SAN FRANCISCO ON JUNE 10, 2005
Filmmaker and Activist available for telephone interviews
WHAT: Directed by Franny Armstrong, “McLibel” follows the
15-year story of London Greenpeace activists Helen Steel and Dave
Morris as they are transformed from anonymous campaign volunteers into
unlikely global heroes.
In 1990, McDonald’s sued the single father and part-time bar worker for
libel in 1990, for distributing “What’s Wrong With McDonald’s” leaflets
after “McSpies” infiltrated their non-profit group. The leaflet listed
15 reasons why the corporation did not have the public’s best interests
in mind. The two activists defended themselves in the longest running
legal battle in English history, and won. The case has been described
as “the biggest corporate PR disaster” ever.

Please prepare your dishes with raw, organic (at least pesticide/herbicide

steamed, baked or otherwise heated above 105 degrees is appropriate for this
potluck. Dehydrated foods and dried fruits are fine as long as they have
been prepared within the temperature guideline above. Tofu and most seaweeds
are not raw foods. Please pay attention to what might go into your dish;
oils, vinegar, spices, salt...is it raw, healthy, etc. Could it be added
later at the potluck by those who want it?
Some attendees have been on the raw path for 20+ years so we must adhere to
these seemingly strict guidelines. There are some wonderful raw foods
cookbooks available at the local health food stores for new ideas, or you
can go to http://www.living-foods.com for lots of great recipes. Beautiful leafy
greens and veggies presented in a wide variety of (raw) ways are always a
winner. Be creative, enjoy yourself and have fun! If in doubt - leave it
out! Call or email if you need ideas or have questions.

# San Francisco Performers and Greens Team up for CLEAN-FUEL CARAVAN CABARET
World music/alternative energy concert to liven-up United Nations World Environment Day, Friday, June 3rd
San Francisco ; Live Afrobeat music, Brazilian drums, gypsy jazz, and political puppets are part of a wild local celebration for World Environment Day, a week-long international conference being held for the first time in the U.S. Top local musicians will perform from a solar-powered stage to raise money for the Bio-Fuel Caravan Coalition, a local group of performers that tour the country performing energy education, music, and public outreach. Headlining the clean-fuel concert – to be held at the Cellspace - is San Francisco’s own 11-piece Afrobeat orchestra, Aphrodesia, which tours the country in a bus powered by vegetable oil. The band will give tours of their bus before their performance. Local Brazilian percussion master Emiliano Benevides will perform with Batucada 1000, a collective of the Bay Area’s top Brazilian musicians. The Big Tadoo Puppet Crew, who also travel in a bio-fuel bus and are members of the Bio-Fuel Caravan Coalition, will perform their acclaimed energy act, Dr. FeelFine’s Cure-all Circus Sideshow. Taarka, a unique ‘seismic gypsy hypno-jazz’ group from Portland, Or., will also perform.
Concert-goers can enjoy organic wine and beer at the event, and witness a panel discussion by noted energy experts and environmental activists. Also planned are an environmental art show, numerous informational booths, and a clean-fuel auto show to be held just outside the CELLspace.

# PV/EV = Solar Power + Electric Vehicles Sat June 4 10:00 a.m.-12 noon Free
Why buy gas and drive a polluting car when you could be in a zero-emission electric vehicle and creating electricity from sunshine? Adding solar photovoltaic (PV) panels to your home and using an electric vehicle (EV) can be a winning combination for both your wallet and the planet.
No gas, no oil, no emissions, and no profits for slimy dictators and terrorists.
Learn more and ride in an EV at the PV/EV Workshop on Saturday, June 4, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon at The Francisco School (a solar-powered school), 300 Gaven Street, between Boylston and Bowdoin, San Francisco, near the interchange of Highways 280 and 101.
Speakers: Sherry Boschert of the San Francisco Electric Vehicle Association (http://www.sfeva.org) and Greg Kennedy of Occidental Power Solar and Cogeneration, a licensed solar contractor.
Please r.s.v.p. to sfeva [at] sfeva.org, or call 415-681-7716.
Solar PV panels create clean electricity. The monthly payment for a PV system can be lower than your previous electricity bill, lowering your monthly costs instantly. And if you drive an electric vehicle (EV), your PV system offsets not just household electricity but costly gasoline, because EVs run on electricity. PV/EV creates power without polluting and provides personal transportation in non-polluting cars.

WHAT: Directed by Franny Armstrong, “McLibel” follows the

unlikely global heroes.
In 1990, McDonald’s sued the single father and part-time bar worker for
libel in 1990, for distributing “What’s Wrong With McDonald’s” leaflets
after “McSpies” infiltrated their non-profit group. The leaflet listed

legal battle in English history, and won. The case has been described
as “the biggest corporate PR disaster” ever.

oils, vinegar, spices, salt...is it raw, healthy, etc. Could it be added
later at the potluck by those who want it?

these seemingly strict guidelines. There are some wonderful raw foods
cookbooks available at the local health food stores for new ideas, or you
