Discounted Hotel Rate Ending Tomorrow for Renewable Energy Markets 2011

(3BL Media / theCSRfeed) October 27, 2011 - If you haven't made your hotel reservations yet, the cutoff for our conference rate at the hotel is tomorrow, Thursday, October 27th. Please make your reservations by end of the day Thursday to ensure that you are able to stay at the hotel at this discounted rate, which saves $120 per night off the published rate. There are a number of other conferences going on in San Francisco at the same time and the city is expected to be a near sell-out, so make your reservations in the next 24 hours to guarantee your spot. See Travel Details › Hotel

Environmental Epicenter Tour hosted by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission There's no better place to get an exciting first-hand look at pioneering innovators in sustainability than San Francisco, the nation's environmental epicenter! On this engaging and entertaining adventure through the hub of one of the nation's greenest metropolitan areas, guests meet inspired local leaders of sustainability who are driving the global green agenda. We'll profile a panorama of innovative, cutting-edge stops—including the Sunset Reservoir Solar Array—pointing out local San Francisco points of interest along the way! Please note that separate registration is required. Sign up with registration at Side Events > Environmental Epicenter Tour.

Calling all cyclists. Riders from Center for Resource Solutions and 3Degrees are organizing a Saturday half-day ride after the conference. It will start from the waterfront, go across the Golden Gate Bridge, and wind through the beautiful Marin headlands, before a lunch stop and return trip to the hotel. This is intended for strong riders only, while there are a few places to meet up with transit, we're planning on a 50+ mile ride with a few steep hills and a fair chance for some strong headwinds, so keep that in mind. If you're interested in joining the group, and learning about local bike shops that rent road bikes, send an email to Jeff Swenerton at jeff@resource-solutions.org.

Conference Contact: please contact Beatriz Gómez at 415-561-2103 or beatriz@resource-solutions.org with questions about the conference or sponsorship information.
