During the conference, downtown Norman will host dozens of speakers, exhibits and workshops on subjects including transportation, biofuels, green architecture, community building and conflict resolution, alternative energy, religion and environmental ethics.

Friday’s keynote speaker is Julie Frieder, environmental analyst for the Calvert Group mutual fund company, and Saturday’s keynote is Joel Salatin, a nationally known sustainable agriculture pioneer. New to this year’s conference is a kids’ track for ages 3-12 featuring storytelling and sustainability-related crafts.
