Cities Alive - Green Roof and Wall Conference
November 30, 2010 to December 03, 2010
Whether you are a skeptic or not, headlines around the world are recognizing global warming as a major threat facing us right now. Can we make more of a difference in shaping our future? Can we slow down the impacts of global warming?
Join us in Vancouver for CitiesAlive! 2010 and explore opportunities to expand your business. Position your business to take advantage of the leading edge conversation about new products, new design practices, new projects and markets, and new policies and research opportunities designed to maximize the ability of widespread green roof and wall implementation to contribute solutions to climate change.
CitiesAlive! 2010 is a three-day celebration of green roofs and walls, and the only event in North America that is specifically designed to bring the international community together in an effort to address the issues of green roofs and walls as they relate to environmental, social and economic needs on a local, regional and global level. Tap into the expanding West Coast Market and learn how to better position your products and services to help manage climate change by integrating building systems and increasing client payback and buy-in. Urban food, energy savings, renewables, embodied energy, water-energy dynamics, biofuels, cost savings – all these subjects will be on the table in the beautiful City of Vancouver, Canada in 2010.
CitiesAlive! 2010 will include a formal reception, tours, networking sessions, training courses and GRP accreditation testing. The CitiesAlive! Trade Show will be populated by industry leaders in the field of green infrastructure, a Global Village of Green Roof associations, and leading-edge educational institutions. A carefully developed program for international guests will feature special green roof and sustainable design destinations in Vancouver, and tourist activities.
