Mark Your Calendars: A Big Green Weekend

October is going out with a bang!

It's only Thursday, but it's time to start preparing for the big green weekend ahead of us. We wanted to take just a moment to alert you to all the green building and green home events happening across the continent this weekend.

First up: The Western Interiors Design + Home Show is taking place in San Francisco at the Herbst Pavilion. The event starts tomorrow morning and runs through Sunday, October 28. This year, West Coast Green has signed on as a sponsor and there will be a whole section of the show ("The Green Home") dedicated to "the latest in green design and green products." Check out greenthumb22's post about the event here.

Next: Two big green events are taking place in Pittsburgh over the next few days. The Green Building Alliance is hosting a Green Building Products Summit on Monday, October 29th at the Regional Learning Alliance in Cranberry. On October 26 and 27th, you can catch the Global Problems, Global Solutions Conference held each year by LaRoche College. Erin Brokovich is the featured speaker.

Last, but not least: The 3rd Annual Green Building Festival in Toronto ends today. If you're already in Toronto, and you hustle, you might just make it before everyone packs up!

 

On the horizon: Don't forget, the Green Build Expo is just around the corner -- November 7-9 in Chicago. Bill Clinton will be the keynote speaker.
