GreenBuild 2009 in Phoenix last week was an excellent conference.
A few things, quickly, that were appreciated by SR Inc. staff:
The extent to which the waste stream from conference-goers is sorted
Coolerado (www.coolerado.com)
Al Gore’s opening speech (and the fact that we had dinner and drinks on the Diamondback’s field beforehand)
The USGBC’s publication of LEED integration guides including the Green Office Guide and the forthcoming Paid-from-Savings Guide to Green Existing Buildings. (SR Inc. has additional guidance in each of these areas that incorporate what these guides provide and go beyond them.)
The session on ASHRAE’s new 189.1 standard and its potential for integration directly into building codes
Much more was enjoyed, learned and shared by SR Inc. Those are simply a few interesting bits of information. It was also excellent to run into many of the Members of the Sustainable Corporate Real Estate Roundtable in Phoenix and update them on the shared consulting and research that we are doing.
