Understanding the Living Building Challenge Workshop


While not affiliated with Biomimicry Chicago, this workshop may be of interest to those interested in biomimicry in the built environment.  In fact, the Living Building Challenge was heavily influenced by the thought meme of biomimicry.  Early bird pricing ends 6/4.  I am going.  Join me?  Amy 


Understanding the Living Building Challenge Workshop
Time: Monday, June 18 · 9:00am - 3:30pm

This workshop is hosted by Jason La Fleur, Regional Director of Alliance for Environmental Sustainability and one of our own LBC Collaborative members.  Attendees are the green building leaders in their community: design professionals, contractors, developers, owners, government officials and employees of public agencies.  In short, anyone and everyone who can impact the development of the built environment.
