We're excited to share an invitation from the City of Austin and Texas USGBC to Design, (De)Construction & the Circular Economy—a free, full-day event exploring how reuse, deconstruction and circular practices can keep building materials in use and out of landfills.

⏰Friday, Nov. 13 | 9 a.m.–4 p.m.
📍Permitting & Development Center, Austin, TX

The event features panels, keynotes and lunchtime workshops on building deconstruction, material exchange, reuse and retrofits, circular innovation, and reuse businesses. Breakfast and lunch will be provided, and AIA and GBCI continuing education credits are available.

A hands-on Deconstruction Workshop for 15 contractors will follow Nov. 16–20.

🍫 Don't let candy wrappers come back to haunt your recycling bin! This Halloween, remember candy wrappers are not recyclable! They are just too sticky, small, and flimsy to process at a recycling facility! Throw them in the trash and keep your recycling bin clean.
