LAKE CITY, Colo. (PRWEB) July 23, 2018 -- For anyone who cares about green building, sustainable innovation, and climate action, this is truly a can’t miss event.

Our Sustainability Symposium 2019: The Desert Shall Bloom promises to exceed expectations and transcend the high bar set by the ambitious Sustainability Symposium 2017: Ready for Anything and the epic Sustainability Symposium 2018: Champions of Change.

Scheduled to take place on Monday, February 18, 2019 (the day before the show floor opens at Design & Construction Week, otherwise known as IBS/KBIS) from 9:00am-5:30pm at the Artemus W. Ham Concert Hall on the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) campus, the event will bring together some of the brightest and most progressive minds in the sustainability sector.

Brimming with vision and ingenuity, the Symposium’s agenda features global leaders including:

  • Opening remarks by Jeff Bridges, Academy-Award winning actor and climate activist (yes, ‘The Dude’!)
  • General Wesley Clark (ret.), four-star general, former Army Chief of Staff, Presidential advisor, and fervent climate action advocate
  • Bill Walton, NBA All-Star icon and passionate sustainability enthusiast
  • Susan Kucera, award-winning Director, Cinematographer, and Producer of eco-films including “Breath of Life” and “Living in the Future’s Past” (co-produced with Jeff Bridges)
  • Gwen Migita, Social Impact & Inclusion Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer, Caesars Entertainment
  • Ron Jones, Founder/President Green Builder Media and industry provocateur
