Green Skies Launches to Unite North America for Better Aviation Environmental Responsibility

New Conference to Debut May 21-23, 2008
WASHINGTON--(Business Wire)--Green Skies Inc. debuted today as a U.S. aviation consulting and
conference management firm aimed at uniting the aviation industry
toward better and more comprehensive environmental responsibility, the
company said. Green Skies will hold the largest aviation environmental
event in North America during May 21-23, 2008 at the Hyatt Grand
Cypress in Orlando, Florida.

"Green Skies is a conference and a movement," said Green Skies CEO
Michael Miller, a veteran aviation journalist and consultant. "Our
conference will showcase the best the industry has to offer, provide
benchmarks for all areas of aviation, and offer a single meeting place
to interact with like-minded companies." The Green Skies event is open
to be booked at GreenSkies.com.

Miller, the former co-founder of The Velocity Group and former
editor of Aviation Daily and other aviation publications, said there
are many green initiatives underway in North America, but that the
continent as a whole is behind Europe on environmental leadership.

"North America is behind, and the industry can seize the moment
and take a unified approach, or wait for others to enact rules that
penalize or enact new tax burdens on our businesses," Miller said.
"Aviation needs a unified approach to green issues, and the major
organizations should be working together closely."

"This is a global issue that also requires a local focus. Each
company should have undertaken an environmental audit and should have
adopted a new set of principals that take green issues into account."
Green Skies has put forward the Green Skies Pledge (available at
GreenSkies.com) to encourage companies to adopt more extensive
environmental guidelines.

"In addition, the aviation industry should understand that there
is money, fuel and the environment to be saved by adopting greener
principals, and money to be made by introducing new technologies and
products," he said.

Miller cited several aviation companies in North America who have
made significant progress on green issues, including Continental
Airlines, Chicago O'Hare Airport, San Diego International Airport and
others. "Those undertaking green efforts are the exception, however,"
he said. "In Europe, it is an accepted approach to factor the
environment in every major business decision. We're not there yet."

Green Skies Inc. is an aviation consulting and conference
management company based in Maitland, Florida, and founded by Michael
Miller, who has managed several aviation events and has been cited
often as an aviation expert by CNN, CNBC, ABC, CBS and BBC.
