GSA Regional Administrator Shyam Reddy, along with the Federal Environmental Executive Council on Environmental Quality’s Michelle Moore, extend an invitation to you to attend the Greening the Supply Chain “listening session,” sponsored by the White House Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) and the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) and hosted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday, March 17, 2011, in Atlanta, Georgia.
This Greening the Supply Chain meeting will convene leading corporations and small businesses in the Atlanta area with CEQ’s Office of the Federal Environmental Executive, national and regional executives from the GSA, the Minority Business Development Agency, and the U.S. Small Business Administration.
In 2009, President Obama signed Executive Order 13514, Federal Leadership in Environmental, Energy, and Economic Performance. Among other goals, the Executive Order called on GSA to lead the development of recommendations for greening the Federal supply chain and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This conversation will focus on those recommendations, broaden the conversation with the private sector, and address how we can move forward together to achieve these goals.
The GreenGov Supply Partnership is a collaborative effort between the Federal Government and its suppliers to create a greener, more efficient supply chain that will help build a clean energy economy.
The Greening the Supply Chain listening session will take place from 2:45PM – 4:30PM on Thursday, March 17, 2011 in Auditorium B at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Global Communications Center, 1600 Clifton Rd., NW, Atlanta, Georgia.
To attend, you must pre-register. Please register by Friday, March 11th.
