As a NY Green Contractor we think this event from the Pratt Center for Community Development (http://prattcenter.net/) is great, it really helps increase public awareness around green building issues in NYC and educates people about ways they can get themselves or tenants involved in sustainability. They even plan to work on issues like changing attitudes and mobilizing people to commit to environmental activities. Hope you can add it to your calendar!
