What You Don’t Know About Los Angeles May Surprise You!
Why will AASHE 2012, North America’s largest campus sustainability conference, be held in the City of Angels? Here are just a few of the reasons LA is the perfect location to have a national sustainability conversation:
- Through the Mayor’s
Office of Energy, Environment and Sustainability, LA met the Kyoto
targets for reducing greenhouse gases four years ahead of schedule; has
taken over 2,000 dirty diesel trucks off the road; met the first target of
getting 10% of energy from renewable sources; and put into place a
far-reaching green building program. Learn more

- California Green Communities Challenge
brings 10 communities in the state of California together to foster
innovative ways to address carbon emissions and energy consumption issues.

of Los Angeles Action Plan.
- The Gold LEED certified Los
Angeles Convention Center was recently welcomed by the EPA as a
national Green Power Partner, and is now a qualified member of the EPA’s
national WasteWise program!
- The host hotel for conference
attendees, the Westin
Bonaventure Hotel & Suites, was the first LA hotel to earn Green Seal Silver Certification,
and was acknowledged by the Mayor’s
Office for leading the way in sustainable hotel practices.
- And don’t forget our
sustainable Host Campus partners to date!
