The goal is to teach attendees how they can participate in making the city more environmentally friendly. Furthermore, TCG, is Florida’s leading property management company and a dedicated education provider to its communities on green practices and sustainability, helping to encourage residents to participate in the green movement.
The Expo will feature desktop presentations by former “Go Green” City of Aventura winners and tentative Corporate Green presenters include; Florida Power and Light, Waste Management and others, presenting about topics ranging from: all natural recycling, water conservation, Florida Friendly™ landscaping, energy saving tips and all natural pest control.
The Symposium will begin at 7 p.m. with feature presentations by Devesh Nirmul, Director of Energy and Sustainability Solutions at FirstService Energy Management, the City of Aventura and the Florida Green Building Coalition. All multimedia presentations aim to educate residents and condominium managers in attendance on ways that the City of Aventura is “going green” and how they can establish or enhance their own Go Green initiatives in their homes and highrise communities.
Attendees will be encouraged to ask questions after the presentations. Light refreshments will be served at the end of the symposium.
