Since the inception, the organizers of the This Way to Sustainability Conference have tried to walk the talk. We have reduced the waste produced at our annual conference, used local organic food for meals, and mitigate travel by purchasing carbon offsets.
The theme for this year's conference is Connecting Communities and we are taking that theme deep into the structure of the conference. In the past we have established "tracks" and invited some people to make presentations, and invited other people to come listen. This year we are establishing five communities - learning, building, business, biotic, and advocacy- and we are asking people involved or interested in those sectors of our larger, global community to come together to propose a set of presentations and other interactions that they, and thus others, would want to attend.
Location: Bell Memoral Union (California State University, Chico)
