Greening the Supply Chain Roundtable

Thursday, January 27th, 2011

The Greening the Supply Chain Roundtable will convene executives from leading corporations and small businesses in the Portland/Seattle area to meet with Michelle Moore, Federal Environmental Executive, Council on Environmental Quality, George Northcroft, Regional Administrator, U.S. General Services Administration and Susan Anderson, Director, City of Portland Bureau of Planning and Sustainability. This roundtable will provide an opportunity to discuss how we can work together to green the Federal supply chain.

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 3:15PM – 4:45PM on February 1, 2011 at the Auditorium in the Oregon Museum of Science & Industry, 1945 SE Water Avenue, Portland, Oregon.
