Welcome to the annual ELPR Symposium. This year, we will explore the topic– “It’s Not Easy Building Green: Legal and Political Issues Related to Green Building Standards and Sustainable Development Legislation”.
This program will explore various issues surrounding the green building movement. Featuring ten presentations from academic researchers, legal practitioners, and state legislators, this Symposium seeks to provide a thorough and balanced examination of green building regulations and the resulting legal implications. Furthermore, this program will address alternative green practices and strategies that may enhance the benefits of green building. We hope that you enjoy it!
We will be doing our best to write recaps of each presentation and post them to this site. Please keep checking back and feel free to leave comments to create an on-going dialogue about the issues.

To Symposium CLE Attendees
I would like to thank everyone for checking in on the new website and attending the Symposium. The Virginia Bar granted “It’s Not Easy Building Green” 6.5 hours of CLE credit. If you are attending the Symposium for CLE credit, we hope this webpage can enhance your learning through discussion and provide opportunities for you to connect with others who share an interest in the growing field of green building.
Feel free to contact any member of the ELPR Staff if we can enhance your learning experience in anyway.

I just spoke to Tim Beatley on his way out and he said that he forgot to share the link to his blog Eco-Compass at Island Press books’ Web site with you. Here is the Web site: http://blog.islandpress.org/ Could you please share it with your readers and the symposium attendees?
Thanks for hosting such an interesting group of speakers on a fascinating topic.
