A fusion of science, technology, policy and design for a new kind of green

Conservation Remix was an event with a mission—to foster creative thinking about the big environmental issues of our time. The organizers aimed to broaden the definition of what it means to be “green”. For one thought-provoking day, innovators in diverse fields connected science, engineering, business, architecture, and design to peer ahead to a sustainable future. At Conservation Remix, last saturday in Seattle, we heard from inspiring, thoughtful, and remarkable people about ideas that can truly change the world.

Cassandra Profita and I were two of the many people Tweeting at Saturdays’ Conservation Remix conference in Seattle. Cassandra Profita used storify to collect the tweets. Read about the meeting through storify here.
