More than 100 individuals, including participants, speakers and presenters, spent two days at the end of July 2010 at Mission Inn Resort & Club in Howey-in-the-Hills sharing ideas about conserving and maximizing natural resources during the Second Annual Lake County Green Symposium.
The agenda of presentations at the symposium covered a variety of topics including energy conservation, green job creation, green transportation, water consumption policy, green tourism and natural waste to power.
The two-day workshop also featured free homeowner’s educational classes and three keynote speakers: Billy Hattaway, Managing Director for Transportation at Vanasse Hangen Brustlin; Daniel Parker, Assistant Division Director of Environmental Health, Florida Department of Health; and Doug Alderson, author and Florida Paddling Trails Coordinator for Florida's Office of Greenways and Trails.
