Educational Track: Transparency + Green Chemistry Innovation

This session will include an introduction to the key features of sustainability tools and programs that can help manufacturers optimize and market their products, and help designers make better-informed decisions that improve the health of buildings. We'll explore how the various tools and programs are harmonized in order to work together to shift the market, and include an interactive exercise to give participants hands on experience using the programs to select healthy sustainable materials.

Discussion will include subject matter experts and representatives from the organizations responsible for GreenScreen, Health Product Declarations, Cradle to Cradle, Declare and the Living Product Challenge.
