Building on Sustainable Design, Construction and Management Practices
A Conference for Energy Efficient and Sustainable Strategies and Solutions for All Types of Buildings
The National GreenBuilding Conference will be held on November 28 - 30, 2012 concurrently with the 24th annual Construct Canada, PM Expo, HomeBuilder & Renovator Expo, DesignTrends, and Concrete Canada, Canada largest design and construction event at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre South Building.
The National GreenBuilding Conference will focus on all
aspects of green design, construction, retrofit, and
maintenance leading to high performance buildings, and will
examine best practices and project delivery models that result
in more efficient methods of designing sustainability into any
project.
Approximately, 50% of green house
gas emissions come from buildings and associated activities in
Canada. The increasing pressures to reduce green house gas
emissions, rising energy
costs, and a growing global interest and demand for efficient,
responsible growth and development are fuelling the trend towards
green building and design and have reinforced the need for a
stronger focus on sustainability.
