Will be the first time for me
It would be great to get some ideas and see the new green technology!!

just got back from Chicago ASLA green expo and would be great to check out the building side of residential sector!!
I’ll already be in SF! Would love to see if the show is a good venue to display our furniture next year.

Would be first time, I am also a Residential Green building advocate working hard to bring some Green Lovin to IDAHO! Idaho needs all the green help we can get.
Thanks!
I would like to go to discuss new “green” technology I am involved with and see where it fit in the “green” ecosystem.

I am an exhibit developer at the Exploratorium, just down the road from the Expo. I would love to see if there are any great hand-on activities that are about energy use and materials.
Would love to go a learn about new green technologies, so I could find the way to apply them in my city, and I would like to see what type pf projects are being made.
Bernardo Enriquez
Thanks.
I am consulting with a builder to make not only the construction process greener but how the business gets run internally and could use 2 tickets to the show so we can be further enlightened.
We are currently building a green demonstration house on San Juan Island, WA and are trying to keep up with all the latest green technologies that we can for the home. We are pursuing LEED Gold, NAHB Emerald, Green Built Northwest, and Energy Star certifications. More importantly though, we are using the project for educational purposes, working with a variety of schools and non-profits to show how you can do low impact building/living on the Puget Sound — very controversial right now! Thanks. Glen
I work at a museum, we’re looking for ideas for more sustainable building materials and inspiration in general.
I am a New York City real estate developer who is currently working on an ambitious project that will incorporate multiple sustainable and green systems into the existing building and to-be-constructed rooftop green-space environment. The sustainable solutions portion of the project will incorporate state-of-the-art technologies including wind turbine, water reclamation, passive and active solar, green roof, and advanced air filtration just to name a few. I would love to see what other solutions are being utilized by my peers.
I would love to go to make connections… I am currently an unemployed Architect who was laid off a week after passing his LEED exam. I am trying to get into the field of working on environmentally friendly designs including starting my own furniture line. I think this would be a great chance for me to get to meet people and hopefully get me back in the field. -Howard Williams
Ooops…forgot to wait for my confirmation email. I am building a green demonstration home on San Juan Island, WA and would love to attend…see what’s new in the field…and share our project with YOU!

I have been to all of the other west coast green shows and I am remodeling my house and I want to make it green as possible and I know this show will help with some of my green remodeling decisions.
It would be great for me to compare green building developments in Europe, where I live, with North Americans’, in order to combine and unify our work for a greener future
I’d like to get ideas on new career directions!
I’m a small business owner in Northern Cal and always looking for new ways to ‘Green’ our company.
Thanks for the chance!
Because it would be totally cool! AND seriously, because I volunteer with a group repurposing designed fabric samples and I would love to see more green ideas.
architecture student from the SF area and hoping to get some more information on where the sustainable market is going.
I would love to attend this conference. I am a mechnical engineering graduate actually starting a career in construction and chemical engineering. I hope to gain information for residential and commercial use. I am hoping to one day build my own home and perhaps start my own firm. This would be a great opportunity not only for a future career paths but for education in the green engineering world. I find that information needs to be passed along through industry faster and I hope our generation can put these ideas into commercial practices quickly and with more widespread purpose.
I’ll be in the Bay Area and I’ve never been to West Coast Green and I would love to go! I’d love to share with my friends the amazing developments in sustainable materials and technologies.
