GreenExpo365.com to Offer Webinars on US EPA WaterSense® Program

May 9 sessions will feature multiple experts on water-efficient building practices

Seattle, Wash. (PRWEB) April 27, 2012

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that at least 36 states will face water shortages by 2013. It’s a problem not limited to the desert Southwest, but stretches to the Midwest, Florida, Georgia and other regions. EPA’s WaterSense® program is designed to decrease indoor and outdoor nonagricultural water use through more efficient products, equipment and programs. Architects and builders interested in developing more water-efficient buildings can learn the ins-and-outs of the WaterSense® program during a series of four free live webinars hosted online at GreenExpo365.com May 9. Experts from the EPA, along with architects and builders will present ways to design and build water-conscious homes and buildings, and be available to answer questions. http://www.greenexpo365.com
