GREENBUILD 2010
(November 16 -19)
This year's 2010 Greenbuild Conference was held in one of America's windiest and greenest cities, Chicago. This is the second time the USGBC has chosen the newly renovated and architecturally eye-pleasing, McCormick Place West to house the world's largest international conference on green building products. The biggest difference between the 2007 Greenbuild show and this year's show is size - doubling to over 1000 exhibitors and nearly 25,000 attendees! Woodland was lucky enough to brave the bitter November chill and check out this amazing show. We scoured 179,000 square feet to bring you the newest in green innovation. Here are the highlights of the show and cool new products….. ENJOY! HIGLIGHTS
