Join us for an engaging and informative advocacy event focused on promoting healthier buildings through Green Engineering Initiatives

Join us for an engaging and informative advocacy event focused on promoting healthier buildings through Green Engineering Initiatives, with a spotlight on Green Roofs and Biophilic Design. This event aims to unite mechanical and building modeling engineers, developers, municipal government officials, and the public to explore how sustainable building practices can revolutionize health, efficiency, and economic savings.

Event Objectives:

🔹 Educate & Inspire – Showcase the physical and mental health benefits of integrating green infrastructure.
🔹 Demonstrate & Advocate – Present compelling qualitative and quantitative data on how biophilic design and green roofs improve building efficiency, lower operational costs, and boost worker productivity.
🔹 Engage & Implement – Facilitate discussions on retrofitting existing buildings and ensuring new developments adhere to minimum sustainability standards, to amend zoning and bylaws to support these initiatives.

What to Expect:

✅ Keynote presentation by The Green Blueprint on the future of sustainable architecture
✅ Expert-led discussions on green roofs, biophilic design, and their role in building wellness
✅ Case studies highlighting successful applications of green engineering initiatives
✅ Interactive Q&A and networking opportunities with industry leaders and policymakers
✅ Actionable strategies for developers, engineers, and city officials to adopt these initiatives

This event is a crucial step in our long-term vision to create a built environment that prioritizes both sustainability and human well-being. Through education, active engagement, and advocacy, we aim to drive real policy change and encourage widespread adoption of green engineering standards.

Join us at the Feltham Center in Edmonton on March 26, 2025, and be part of the movement shaping a healthier, greener future!
