Communications is key to sustainability, speaker says

Abstract:
To Robert Hildreth, the sustainability movement has to move beyond just the environment in order to maintain its momentum. It has to become personal.

He was one of the keynote speakers today at the Brown Forum for Enterprise's daylong 2008 Green Technology Conference. Other sessions focused on sustainable design and architecture, the greening of polluted brownfields sites and the possible effects of nanotechnology on the environment, as well as a discussion of energy initiatives.
