The 2024 Greenbuild International Conference and Expo, taking place Nov. 12–15 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is designed to keep participants who cover sustainability, resilience and health and wellness in the spaces where we live, work, learn and play at the forefront of the industry.

For those interested in circularity and zero waste, there are many ways to tour local case studies and develop valuable skills in connection to GBCI's TRUE certification for zero waste.
