Studies have proven that green buildings have positive effects on people and energy consumption which translates into tangible benefits for commercial, school, retail, municipal and home builders. While environmentally sustainable construction adds less than 2% to the cost, the return on that investment is significant and ongoing. Last year over $8 billion was spent on green building and that number is expected to increase significantly. Learn how you can benefit from the green movement by attending Green Construction 2006 April 12-13 at the San Jose Convention Center.
