Conference Theme:  Building Community

watts 

3 Days of programmed educational tracks, events, and keynote speakers
highlight strategies for
BUILDING COMMUNITY


 

 

'Building Community' reflects bringing people together to share visions and solutions for sustainable communities in which to work, play, learn and live. We will bring together business and community leaders, green building professionals and product suppliers to achieve greater understanding of environmental and economic trends in the maturing 21st century

 

 

 

 

Key advantages to sustainable communities reach beyond the green buildings to the pathways and infrastructure that provide our buildings with clean energy, water, and efficient use of materials while minimizing waste.  Watts, water, waste, and wheels will be the buzz words at this year's conference.  The convenient and sustainable means of arrival for each of these utilities and services results in truly green buildings, sustainable developments, and ultimately green communities.

 

 

Daily Session Focus: 
Each conference day includes plenary sessions that are organized around one of the "triple bottom line" tenets of Sustainability.  A keynote address and a plenary session (panel discussion or presentation) are planned for each day.  

 
Program Tracks for Breakout Sessions:
- Building & Design              - Green Tech
- Ecology & Resources         - Community  & Infrastructure
 
Continuing Education:
GTH2012 will be offering qualified CEUs applicable to most professional attendees.
