The AIC Green Task Force would love to hear about treatment methods or materials that you have found are more environmentally sustainable than traditional ones. Even very small ideas can make a difference.
Please write to green@conservation-us.org with your suggestions. We are presenting a paper at the AIC 2010 Annual Meeting concerning sustainability in conservation. If you have photos illustrating sustainable practices and treatments that we can use in our a PowerPoint presentation, we will be sure to credit you. We are also looking for photos of waste that is produced in conservation treatment such as a large trash can full of paper towels, gloves, solvent use or styrofoam. Those photos can be anonymous if you wish.
