Brand Sustainability - Conference

I was asked by Don Carli, one of the organisers of the Green Media Show planned for the 1-2nd of October in Boston to check the site and share my opinion about the event, but I am in trouble - apart from the fact I understand the importance of green media, I am not really aware of its current situation!
The website sounds promising for any company:

'Attend The Green Media Show and Conference and avoid:

1.	Loss of a major bid with green requirements.
2.	Finding your brand damaged by people or the press calling your bluff on your stated sustainable practices.
3.	The damage to your image when asked for your Sustainability Statement and you don’t have one.
4.	The repercussions when a shareholder asks your CEO hard questions about the sustainability of your media choices and knowing he hasn’t a clue because you haven’t given him answers yet. Or her.
5.	Printing your Sustainability Report in a totally non-sustainable way and posting the pdf on a website powered by coal-burning generators. Way to go.'

And the materials available are impressive. I was hoping to see a link to a blog or a feed where I can follow the event itself since I am rather grounded at the moment - but then I realized there is still time! No rush!
If I could, I would love to attend! I have found a bit info about green media here, but I would be careful saying 'green considerations have become a major factor in our decision-making' - I am not really sure it is happening. Not yet. For some companies it might sound relevant, for some completely out of scope...see this discussion on BrandRepublic...

I would like to have more time to learn where businesses are with green media in the US and in the UK, so I guess a conference is a good call - raising any type of awareness if positive. Good luck with it!:)

Update: I was just informed that the conference will have a Twitter feed and potentially live blogging. Great!:)

Facebook again! Not happy:(

OK, I am running out of time - end of lunch - so just a quick one: I have experienced another strange thing on Facebook - notifications like this:Why do I get them? Is is a new way of promoting Facebook apps/business/ads? I do not like anything I am not really interested in and getting it in my personal notifications does feel like violating of my privacy...
