Greenbuild 2018 has a new feature – the People’s choice. This is where you can vote for sessions that sound interesting. I have been scrolling through this list and I am seeing a lot of great sessions, and familiar names.

So let’s crowd source this one.

Go here https://www.greenbuildexpo.com/en/education/peoplesvoice.html to find the list of sessions.

The voting button is on the top right, but you need your list of sessions to vote for figured out ahead of time. Here is my current list:

PV05 – Façade Thermal
- This is Vikram Sami
PV10 – Air Infiltration
- This is Marine Dion
PV27 – Cost Justifying Green Building
- This is Robert Phinney
PV30 – Cooking and Crafting - LEED COTE top ten school.
- This is Pauline Souza
PV31 – Evolving our Capacity
- This is Marcus Sheffer and John Boecker
PV73 – Sequestering Carbon
- This is David Arkin and others talking about carbon mitigation
PV74 – BuildingGreen’s Top 10 Products for 2019
- This is the Brent Ehrlich and Alex Wilson show
PV88 – Crisis, Comebacks and Zombies
- This is Jim Newman

I worked through this fast, so I am sure that I missed a few. Please reply with other interesting sessions.

Voting closes at 5 p.m. ET on Friday, July 13.

ok, let's try this again. Greenbuild 2018 has a NEW feature where they are asking people to vote for sessions last minute, to add these sessions to the program. Some people like Barbra and Lance got ahead of the game, submitted sessions, and obviously were already included in the program. This is a different thing - and if we don't vote for these sessions they might not win. So we all need to vote!

Thanks Anne! That saved me a lot of time. I had started to go through the list on my own, using the same logic, but stopped about 1/3 of the way through when my eyes started to hurt. I don't think I would have made it down to PV88 for the Zombies presentation, so Jim should thank you as well. Brian Feagans RATCLIFF

Just to clarify Anne's comment: it looks like sessions with the prefix "PV..." (People's Vote?) have not yet been added to the GreenBuild conference program, and the voting this week is to determine which will be included. Here's an updated list of the PV sessions from SDL members, for your kind consideration. Are there any others? PV06 – Façade Thermal ◦This is Vikram Sami
PV10 – Air Infiltration ◦This is Marine Dion
PV21 – "(Re)normalizing Nature ◦This is Matt Piccone, Jeff Roberts (SERA)
PV23 – To the Stars: Transformative Project Engagement ◦This is Jim Newman
PV27 – Cost Justifying Green Building ◦This is Robert Phinney
PV30 – Cooking and Crafting - LEED COTE top ten school. ◦This is Pauline Souza
PV31 – Evolving our Capacity ◦This is Marcus Sheffer and John Boecker
PV58 - The Road to WELL, Pain Free! This is Nicole VanWie, Jen Kruse
PV73 – Sequestering Carbon ◦This is David Arkin and others talking about carbon mitigation
PV74 – BuildingGreen’s Top 10 Products for 2019 ◦This is the Brent Ehrlich and Alex Wilson show
PV88 – Crisis, Comebacks and Zombies ◦This is Jim Newman (Not trying to give short shrift to the other scheduled sessions :-)
