Boston - the historic cradle of the American Revolution, home to innovations that have far-reaching impact and the perfect place to celebrate Greenbuild 2008s theme of Revolutionary Green: Innovations for Global Sustainability. Join us at the U.S. Green Building Councils Greenbuild International Conference and Expo in Boston November 19-21, 2008. Buildings play a critical role in protecting and improving our environment and the health of the people who occupy them. USGBCs Greenbuild conference and expo is an unparalleled opportunity to connect with other green building peers, industry experts, and influential leaders as they share insights on the green building movement and its diverse specialties.

In
reclaiming and reoccupying lands laid waste by human improvidence or
malice
the task is to become a co-worker with nature in the reconstruction
of the damaged fabric.
NEI seeks to become a catalyst for sustainable development in cities. We accomplish this mission by promoting best practice and information exchange among three constituencies - CDCs, private developers, and universities - as well as public policy networks. By sustainable development, we mean development that restores environmental quality and eliminates pollution and waste, provides direct, meaningful economic opportunities for all communities, and builds civic capacity to ensure a healthy future. We focus on places most in need of physical and economic revitalization, where residents have been disenfranchised by and alienated from the development system. Emphasizing collaboration and knowledge sharing among our targeted constituencies, NEI promotes development solutions that deliver positive economic, environmental, and social returns (the "Triple Bottom Line").
