[greenyes] Interest in forming a panel session on green reconstruction and/or demolition after hurricanes?

["Marjorie J. Clarke, Ph.D." <mclarke@no.address>]

Ostensibly, today is the deadline for submitting panel session ideas 
to the Air and Waste Management Association's annual conference next 
June.  It was scheduled years in advance to be held in New 
Orleans.  After some communications and time, it has been decided to 
hold it there.  Because of that, it would be really great if we could 
have a panel discussion about green reconstruction / building after 
hurricane destruction.  I've noticed some discussion on this 
here.  Would some of you like to discuss this in a panel session in 
New Orleans June 20-23, 2006?  Here's the blurb from AWMA:

The waste management division will be having other paper sessions at 
this conference as well.
There are ways to reduce or eliminate the registration fee, and my 
division has talked about ways to help people carpool and roomshare 
to reduce costs as well.  Please let me know if you are interested in 
this panel discussion.  And if you have been doing innovative 
research in any 3Rs/composting related area, zero waste, etc, please 
submit an abstract online.  Today is the deadline, though the system 
may stay open over the 
weekend.
