Green Now (Pilot)

At GIGA we're committed to instigating green action. This requires both knowledge, tools and momentum. To build each, GIGA has partnered with RCC and Woigreen to host Green Now, a pilot forum focused on connecting desingers with tools and green materials that are available in China, Now.

GIGA, RCC and Woigreen will share their collective expertise to evaluate strategies and processes that designers can start using today to create greener projects. Several green materials will be introduced, discussed and critiqued based on their life-cycle. Each are produced by progressive manufacturers who prioritize creating positive environmental impact through thier production processes.

Though Green Now is free for all participants, spaces are limited and registration is required. Registration began on Monday December 28th, 2009. Register here.
