Is this a Green Event?

The 2022 Build + Buy Green Event at the Entrepreneurs Sandbox is participating as a green event in the Hawaii Green Business Program. To be a green event, the Build + Buy Green was planned with the intent of conserving Hawaii’s natural resources by implementing practices that conserve and save water, energy, and lower the amount of solid waste generated.

 

Some of the green measures at the Entrepreneurs Sandbox are the use of ENERGY STAR equipment, LED lighting, and low-flow fixtures. The event will have recycling bins, eco-friendly food service ware, and USGBC will donate excess food from the event to the Next Step shelter. Local food will be served and provided by Roots Café and Touch of Heart.

 

We ask that you as an attendee take some green actions in support of this event by:

  • Bringing reusable water container

  • Bringing reusable utensils

  • Considering a mode of active transportation (biking, walking, or public transportation)

  • Considering carpooling with coworkers or friends
