GreenBuild 2008

December 2, 2008

Nov. 19-21 the Greenbuild conference (http://www.greenbuildexpo.org/newsletters/2008-07.html) took place in Boston.  Highlights, for me, included Desmond Tutu keynote address, talking up Strandwoven Timber (http://sustainableflooring.com/index.php?index=strandwoven), witnessing school districts domestically and internationally adopt green products and techniques to improve livability and health security for children, and seeing sustainability continue to be adopted into hospitality/hotel industry.  This is the 4th Greenbuild I’ve attended; there were approv. 34,000 attendees/exhibitors/speakers.  It is overwhelmingly large.
