Gulf Coast Green is a regional conference held annually and attended by Houston green building enthusiasts, and Greenbuild is a national conference annually attended by thousands.
Great for those who attend, but what if you can’t? Come see what some local folks have taken away from these events, and how that helps them move Houston to a sustainable future. And what is available online that you can share and learn from? See a few options for learning about sustainability from your PC.
Even if you are not in this industry and curious about the value proposition, it’s about staying current and relevant in changing times. We’ll have some then-and-now comparisons, and we’ll compare Houston to other parts of the country.
CEU’s available.
