Learn How Sustainable Technologies Can Improve Your Bottom Line

Don’t miss the Dallas Regional Chamber’s Sustainable Technologies Issue Forum as Michael Walsh, Executive Vice President of the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX), presents a special briefing for Dallas regional executives on how the CCX’s carbon cap and trade system is helping companies improve their bottom line while going green with new technologies. The Sustainable Technologies Issue Forum, hosted by the Chamber’s Technology Business Council, will be held August 26th from 11:30 AM – 6:30 PM at the Rosewood Crescent Hotel in Dallas, Texas.

The CCX is the only marketplace in North America for linking voluntary legally binding emissions reductions with emissions trading and offsets for greenhouse gases. According to a recent article in Time magazine, “the CCX has more than 400 corporate members, who last year traded 23 million tons worth of carbon emissions — up from 10.3 million in 2006.”

At the Issue Forum, Walsh will highlight case studies of companies that have profited using this cap and trade system and have seen a return on their investment in energy efficient technologies. Walsh will also discuss how sustainable, energy efficient technologies have played a significant role in environmental efforts like those of the CCX.

The Issue Forum will also feature panel sessions on topics including the financial impacts of going green, energy management and efficiency issues and financial opportunities in sustainable technologies. Following the afternoon forum, the Chamber will host an intimate networking reception discussing “green entrepreneurialism.”
