About the forum The presentation will be Pecha Kucha format, where each presenter is allowed 20 images, each shown for 20 seconds – giving six minutes and forty seconds of fame before the next presenter is up! This is a forum for women (and maybe well-behaved men) to see the breadth of careers in the sustainable field that don’t involve what we like to call the green “bling” (ground source heat pumps, solar, wind, bamboo, green roofs, and the like). All GreenHomeNYC forums are free and open to the public. Please RSVP below. Speakers include:
