Swissnex at Boston GreenFest 2008

Oct 01, 2008 08:59 AM

On Sunday, September 28, Swissnex Boston was part of the first Boston GreenFest 2008, an entertaining education festival celebrating the many ways one can create a better world through greening the neighborhoods, the communities and the entire Boston area. Swissnex Boston showcased the ThinkSwiss Climate Trail which had been previously on view in Washington. Despite the trenchial downpour caused by the passing by of hurricane Kyle, the GreenFest attracted a good crowd of people interested in green issues.

The staff of swissnex Boston staff answered numerous questions with regard to Swiss “greenness”: Why does Switzerland take part in the GreenFest? What is so special about green building in Switzerland? What would it take to make U.S. housing more energy efficient? Thus, Boston GreenFest 2008 provided swissnex Boston with an excellent opportunity to showcase Switzerland as the most greenhouse gas-efficient country in the developed world, to display Swiss know-how in green building and clean energies and to illustrate the latest scientific findings on climate change.
