The power of green is within us all
The Nova Scotia Department of Rural and Economic Development recently hosted the third annual Power of Green Conference. MT&L worked closely with conference organizers, providing communications counsel, creative marketing materials, and media relations in support of the theme: "the business case for sustainability and continued action 364 days of the year".
The Power of Green Conference brings together business leaders, policy makers, academia, students and thought leaders to share practices, challenges and success stories. The 2009 speaker lineup included leaders in sustainable business practices: Ray Anderson - Chairman and Founder, Interface, Inc.; Nicholas Parker - Executive Chairman, Cleantech Group; Toby Heaps - Founder, Editor and President, Corporate Knights Magazine. Participants learned how pursuing sustainable practices are not only socially responsible, but can enhance cost savings, innovation, market opportunities and competitiveness. The Power of Green is within us all and small changes have a large impact on our communities and province.
