Water Conservation Showcase Recap

We teamed up with Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) and East Bay Municipal Utilities District (EBMUD) on March 20th to host the 9th Annual Water Conservation Showcase at the Pacific Energy Center in San Francisco. The all-day event proved itself a success, attracting 650 attendees and participants who came together to address one of the largest concerns of Californians: water.


This year’s showcase featured eight lectures by water resource experts. Audiences packed into each of these lectures, leaving standing room only in many cases. The presentations covered a range of water conservation topics and perspectives. Lectures included information directed at both the private and public sectors, as well as information for private citizens seeking to reduce residential water consumption. This year’s presentation topics included: Corporate Water Management, National Trends in the Water-Energy Connection, Case Studies in Water Conservation, New Strategies for Achieving Sustainable Water Use in the Business Sector, Systematic Solutions for Big Water Savings, Launching a Residential Greywater Program for Outdoor Irrigation, and California Water Management.



The showcase also included an expo space of industry, government, and non-profit exhibitors bringing game-changing solutions to the market. They demonstrated a variety of water-saving products and services to the attendees that can be easily integrated into our built environment.

If you were unable to attend, or missed any of the lectures, you can watch video from each of the 2012 Water Conservation Showcase lectures here.
 
Thank you to all of our volunteers, speakers, attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, partners, and donors! The event was a huge success, and we couldn’t have done it without your involvement. We look forward to continuing the conversation and convening again next year for the 10th anniversary of the Showcase!
