Water is a limited natural resource, heavily impacted by the built environment. Using sustainable practices in a building's development speaks to the triple bottom line: people, profit and planet. Since 2004, the Water Conservation Showcase has convened hundreds of advocates, researchers, business leaders, product manufacturers and government officials to address the most pressing water issues and challenges facing the state of California.
