USENIX Conferences Are Going Green!
We are pleased to announce our commitment to producing a conference that is environmentally responsible. We are working with our suppliers to implement policies that minimize the negative impact on the environment. Here are just a few ways that we're making this happen:
- The conference directory is printed on recycled paper.
- The convention center will be recycling all cans and bottles.
- The Hyatt participates in a towel and sheet reuse program.
- You can help too! Please recycle your name badge at the USENIX registration
desk before you leave the conference.
Thank you for making a difference!
