(DALLAS) — Go green. Embrace sustainability — a move that gives individuals, the local business community and educational institutions a chance to benefit from their own journey toward sustainability by adopting the concept of the "triple bottom line" — the idea that actions must be good for people, the planet and everyone’s wallet. That's the focus for the Dallas County Community College District's second annual Sustainability Summit on Thursday, April 5, at Eastfield College.

Dallas business leader Trammell S. Crow, former member of the DCCCD Board of Trustees, will deliver the keynote address during the summit, which is free and open to the general public, students, DCCCD employees and anyone who is interested in sustainability. Sessions will be held in Building G (the Learning Center), located near the college's entrance on La Prada.

Anyone who pre-registers by 5 p.m. on Tuesday, April 3, will be eligible for special door prizes. Visit http://www.dcccd.edu/ss to register and to see a full schedule of the day's activities and sessions.
