Central New York is increasingly becoming a nation-leading community in embracing sustainable development, research, and practices. International leaders and advocates for sustainability—and Central New York residents—Rick Fedrizzi G’87, president, CEO, and founding chair of the U.S. Green Building Council, and Onondaga Nation Chief Oren Lyons ’58, H’93 will field questions from the audience in an open dialogue about environmental stewardship, economic vitality, social equity, and global citizenship. They will discuss the diverse paths they have taken in their careers promoting green infrastructure, clean energy, and sustainable food systems.

The event will take place at 9 a.m. Friday, November 11, at the Syracuse Center of Excellence at 727 E Washington St. Please RSVP here. You will also have the opportunity to register for other Orange Central 2011 events.
