November Events: Green Is Universal Mark Anielski’s “The Economics of Happiness: Building Genuine Wealth” GBRC November Workshop Panel Professional Development Series
Past Resource Center Events The Eco-Building Forum Green Building Resource Center Grand Opening Ceremony Date: July 15, 2004Time: 4:30PM Join the local environmental community for the official ribbon cutting for the Green Building Resource Center, to be followed by an office warming for Global Green USA and a free raffle of green building products from 5PM – 7PM. Alternative Building Materials: Facts and Fictions Date: June 2, 2004Time: 7:00PM As green building strategies go mainstream, the demand for alternative building materials is on the rise. But meeting this demand can be tricky, as manufacturers must battle cost pressures, greenwashing by competitors, the rigors of independent certification, and the building industry’s traditional fear of trying new things. Come hear our panel of leading manufacturers, distributors and retailers of green building products – David Hertz of Syndesis, Anthony Grosso of Nubucus and Ellen Strickland of Living Green – discuss how they overcome these challenges, emerging trends consumers should be aware of, and the elusive search for the “perfect” green material. Selecting Green Building Materials with Lynn Simon, AIA Date: May 3, 2004Time: 7:00PM Global Green USA’s newly established Green Building Resource Center is honored to inaugurate its monthly workshop series with a feature presentation by Lynn Simon, AIA. One of the country’s leading experts in green building materials and design strategies, Lynn will guide members of the design community and general public through topics such as how materials impact our health and environment, green selection criteria and specifications, life cycle assessment, LEED materials credits, and green product resources and tools.
