First impression:
The first impression is very important! It has to be 'Greenpeacey, professional, neat'. Hide all bags,
backpacks, clothes low table, etc! There need to be green colours (green Greenpeace) or blue
(Youthsolar), a banner stating 'Greenpeace' and some sun symbols.
Well organized, Greenpeace Banner and lots of
colours.
No Greenpeace Banners, no colours.
Could be better with a banner.
The Solar Cooker always win the media
attention.
Solar exhibition in Brazil.
With tent and 'solar energy' banner in Mexico.
More ideas can be found on the document 'solar event @ open boat'.
