["Deborah MacPherson" <debmacp@xxxxxxxxx>]

"Low Carbon Collaboration" coined by ONUMA, describes how to do more with less. 

BIMStorms demonstrate how "green collaboration" is happening now. 

In this resource constrained world (natural and financial), value can be generated using this process.

It's good for the environment and good for the bottom line.
