Workshop: The Art of Sustainable Building: Seeing the Connections

I'll be co-presenting a workshop with my friend Scott Peters on the latest thinking on green building. We are not doing a PowerPoint, only a few props and spontaneous conversation on everything and anything to do with sustainable building practices.

4pm in the green building tent-- Saturday, September 18th at the largest green fair of its kind, The Sustainable Living Fair.

Here is our description: Beyond branding, green building is real building science.This lively and participatory presentation will cover how reducing energy consumption and the benefits of renewable energy are interdependent. Learn the connection between what we build, "the third skin" and "the long tail pipe" and what to do about it. Please bring your questions.

Andrew Michler and Scott Peters are both LEED APs and NCRES Board Members. They share a passion to educate, encourage and engage in the greatest challenge of our time, creating a sustainable built environment. Andrew is a consultant and writer, Scott is a builder and trained Home Energy Auditor.
