  It’s Easy Being Green: 2008 Green Building Conference

The Concrete Home Building Council will once again exhibit at the NAHB Green Building Conference in New Orleans, La. May 11-13.  More than 1,500 builders and other housing professionals are expected to convene in New Orleans to discuss the latest advancements and trends in eco-friendly home building at the 10th annual NAHB National Green Building Conference.

Hosted by NAHB at the Sheraton New Orleans Hotel, the event is the only national conference targeted to green building for the mainstream residential, single-and multifamily building, and remodeling industries.

Conference attendees will have the opportunity to attend cutting-edge education sessions, tour an impressive exhibit hall showcasing the latest green building products and ideas, and attend the National Green Building Awards honoring the best in green building. More than 60 education sessions will be featured including two cement-based classes: Building With Insulated Concrete Forms and Interlocking Concrete Pavement.

Building professionals will also learn about NAHB's Model Green Home Building Guidelines, the first ANSI Approved American National Standard for green building,and will be able to work towards earning the new Certified Green Professional Designation.
