Label The 5th Annual National Sustainable Design Expo

The 5th Annual National Sustainable Design Expo

The Environmental Protection Agency's fourth annual National Sustainable Design Expo features more than 50 college teams from across the U.S. displaying innovative solutions for an environmentally sustainable future.

The Expo will feature solar panels made out of natural chlorophyll from plants instead of silicon, low-cost technologies that can provide clean drinking water to developing nations and green buildings, as well as technologies that generate electricity from flying kites and produce plastics from bacteria in wastewater.

"At the National Sustainable Design Expo, environmental challenges are being tackled, not just with technical and scientific know-how, but with the spirit of innovation and creativity," says Dr. George Gray, assistant administrator for EPA's office of research and development.

"The Expo is a great opportunity to see how the energy of these college students, from across the country, is powering solutions for a greener future today."

The fourth annual People, Prosperity and the Planet (P3) Award, a national competition involving 50 teams of college and university students, will also be presented at the Expo.

The teams will exhibit their novel designs to respond to sustainability challenges in the developed and developing world.
