15,000 miles, 500 American cities and one wild-eyed conservationist…The Casual Conservationist road trip is tripping through your town this summer-fall!

Mongo, author of The Casual Conservationist, is so passionate about conserving natural resources in ways that working Americans can embrace easily, that he has embarked on a self-financed, four-month road trip across America.

As Mongo trips his way across the country in his gas-sipping hybrid, he is sharing his time-tested tips, philosophies, and an ever-growing knowledge about ‘going green’ in ways that don’t take too much time or cost too much money. Mongo is also learning how other Americans conserve in their lives and sharing this knowledge with you in his trip blog. In addition, Mongo is conducting .MP3 audio interviews with regular folks, green experts and Mother Nature along the way and sharing those conversations with you. How’s that for fuel efficiency?
