CBT Kicks Off Green Month

Every June, the CBT office transforms into an educational platform for sustainable initiatives. This year we’re focusing on air quality and its impact on design, our health, and ecological stability.

During Green Month, our staff, peers, and fellow colleagues are invited to learn more about what’s next in sustainable design through a series of educational programs, films, talks, and activities.
