If the three little pigs were to construct their homes in the 21st century would they still use straw, sticks and bricks? I'm guessing, with the advances in building technologies, their homes would be more energy-efficient, environmentally friendly and big bad wolf-proof using new materials, technologies and processes.
The future of homes is being showcased this week in Calgary. Home builders and building product suppliers will converge for the Alberta Green Building Technologies Symposium, a two day expo of present and future technologies to innovate the home starting Tuesday, December 8th. The agenda features many sessions dedicated on the business case for green. Also on the agenda is HGTV's Mike Holmes Tuesday evening followed by a manufacturer's showcase of green goodness.
If you're planning on attending I'll (Chris) be checking out the two days including a stint volunteering at the Calgary Regional Partnership's booth Wednesday morning from 9-11am and again in the afternoon from 2-3pm. See you there!
