Free Green Building Workshop and Refreshments for Contractors/Architects -
May 24 in Walnut Creek....

The Central Contra Costa Solid Waste Authority (CCCSWA) and the City of
Walnut Creek are hosting a Green Building Workshop to show builders and
architects ways to build structures that enhance lifecycle performance
through efficiently using natural resources and energy, increasing
recycling, improving the indoor environment and boosting financial returns
on investment.

Learning about Green Building practices and benefits will help contractors
and design professionals add value and sustainable building knowledge to
their services and compete for upcoming projects such as the Orinda City
Hall.

Featured speaker, David Gottfried, of WorldBuild Technologies Inc. will
provide a blueprint for Green Building and Sustainable Development,
including practical examples. WorldBuild’s experience as a leading Green
Building development consultant has garnered international success and
