BuildGreen Atlantic, St. John’s, Newfoundland

On November 21, 2012, Kube Solutions was pleased to participate in both the conference and tradeshow focused on advancing the design, construction, and operation of greener buildings in Atlantic Canada.

The event was sponsored by Canada Green Building Council, Atlantic Chapter, and offered great workshops and speakers. The special focus of this event was on climate change with a keynote presentation by John Crace. It was a great reminder of the urgency with which the causes of global warming will have to be addressed in order to prevent the potentially grave impacts of rising sea levels.

Jackie Janes, Assistant Deputy Minister, introduced the audience to the impressive Turn Back the Tide Initiative by the NL Office of Climate Change, Energy Efficiency and Emissions Trading.
