I think this conference was necessarily. A lot of people want to act ‘green’ but doesn’t know how to do it.
The idea to bring people together and to discuss about the existing methods is wonderful. People can exchange methods, new possibilities and challenges. I hope this new conference “Green by Design” will be a success.

I agree with Oliver. It is true that most people that want to live and act 'green', don't know where to start or how to do it. We also have to learn our children to take care of our environment and our fantastic world, so the initiative came right in time. Maybe this conference is a final call of 'the screaming world'.
