Building green, thinking green, wanting to be green? Israelis from the who’s who in green building architecture, design, policy and everything else will be seen at the David Intercontinental Hotel tomorrow September the 9.

tel-aviv green architecture conference

The conference is run by the Israel Green Building Council or ILGBC which was established in early 2007 as a non-profit organization and has a broad support base in industry, government and academia, as well as leading professional, social and environmental organizations.

Within a short time, the council has managed to develop into a robust and influential organization, due to its cross-sector representation and widespread recognition of the urgent need for initiatives in this field.

The council now has 130 member organizations, representing all of the sectors involved in the green building field in Israel. In 2011 the ILGBC was also proud to be recognized as an Established Green Building Council by the World GBC, reflecting the council’s leadership in the green building field in Israel and its ongoing international cooperation.

How you create green steel on a blockchain

0
The thing about raw materials is that once they are melted down, you can't prove the source of the material. Same is true with gold, cucumbers and even forged products that look the same as the real thing. When it comes to steel, and how we produce it, it has a massive carbon problem. What's happening in Japan right now could change how we think about heavy industry and climate action.
