Greening your business

The Green Gold Development Corp. is hosting its second "Business Gets Green" on Thursday, June 19. The first one last month was quite good.

The session will start with 20 businesses giving one-minute overviews, followed by three speakers, Gilad Amozeg of Globe Specialty Metals, Inc., who will talk about recently announced plans to start a solar silicon plant in Niagara Falls; Tracie Hall of the the U.S. Green Building Council, who will talk about LEED building standards; and Dave Majewski of Premier Services, who will discuss sustainable and organic landscaping.

Hall, in particular, should be of interest to anyone who wants to know more about building to green standards.

The session will run from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Buffalo Museum of Science.
