With the environment among the top priorities of legislative bodies throughout the world, it’s no wonder that businesses are working harder to meet the demand for more efficient energy use and less carbon emissions. This week we’re excited to see that the city of Palo Alto, California and AltaTerra Research have partnered to present a web conference this Thursday, December 3rd called "Carbon Footprint Reduction for the Long Haul." The conference is aimed at assisting attendees learn more about how to minimize their carbon footprints.

The conference will include presenters, such as Palo Alto’s Sustainability Leader and Energy Risk Manager, Karl Van Orsdol, and President of AltaTerra Research, Don Bray, who will discuss approaches and strategies for implementing carbon management systems. Other topics include target goals, motivations, selecting and implementing systems, challenges and budgets.

We here at TRT are all about lowering carbon footprints and we support communication initiatives that bring government and business together to generate new ideas and share thoughts on how to be more environmentally aware. We hope that this web conference gives way to a growth of innovation and improvement in environmental initiatives. We plan to attend the conference, and also ask the presenters if they’d care to post a guest post here – or join us for a Q&A session.
