SUMMARY:Green Building Tour 2024
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE! \nThe Green Building Tour is a showcase for real-world solutions that address the climate impact of buildings in Central Oregon. From architects and contractors to DIYers\, the tour’s sites illuminate how high performance structures can be healthy\, cost effective\, and impactful options for all. Green buildings’ benefits are often invisible to both consumers in addition to building sector professionals. The Green Building Tour addresses this by connecting attendees with the tools and know-how that break down barriers to building more sustainably. This highly anticipated event brings building better enthusiasts into conversation with one another about paths to climate-resilient living. \nFor the 22nd year of the Green Building Tour we are excited to try a slightly different structure. Themes include Building Dense Livable Cities\, Electrification\, Water Resiliency in the High Desert\, and Healthy Materials Life Cycle Analysis (LCA). The Environmental Center will host participants for a full day of theme-based activities on September 28th. Part I: Summit – From 9:00 to 1:00 community members gather at OSU Cascades\, Tykeson Hall for featured speakers\, community workshops\, and educational booths. Part II: Tour – From 1:00-5:00 pm\, we’ll see themes demonstrated in the field with a tour of four community sites that highlight local energy-saving solutions that connect to our themes. The Green Building Tour will inspire attendees to take action wherever they are on their journey to living more sustainably. \n \nREGISTER HERE
