A Green Workshop

The Omni Hotel is a "Virginia Green" hotel, pledging to recycle, use water efficiently, conserve energy, and offer optional linen service.

At this conference, we are doing the following:

  • We will use electronic media and eliminate paper for all communications:
    • Meeting advertisements and promotion (including the conference poster)
    • Registration and abstract submission
    • Agenda and communication among participants
    • Conference Proceedings
  • Where we are not able to eliminate paper, we will use recycled paper when available.
  • We encourage you to use the electronic resources listed above.
  • We will provide bins for recycling during the meeting. Please use them whenever possible.
