Two Day, 4 Part Sustainability Workshop Series

This session will demonstrate how the primary functional areas of buildings, transportation, and agriculture and land use, exhibit varying degrees of sustainability, largely as a result of how they address the issues of energy, water, and waste management. Numerous examples will demonstrate how society and business has addressed sustainability in each of these areas.
