Industrial Nanotech, Inc. (Pink Sheets: INTK) announced today that the Company's patented Nansulate nanotechnology-based energy saving coatings will be showcased at Green Schools NYC 2009 , an event sponsored by The Green Schools Alliance and the Collegiate School.
The event is the first city-wide Green Schools Conference and will be attended by students, parents, faculty and building administrators from over 100 public and independent schools who are seeking ways to make their schools leaders in environmental sustainability and promote green schools.
The event will be held on Saturday, April 18, 2009, from 11:30 am to 5:00 p.m. at the West End Collegiate School and it includes a screening of the DisneyNature's first film, EARTH. Industrial Nanotech's New York state distributor, Earth Energy Enterprises, will be presenting information on Nansulate and its use for providing an affordable option to reduce energy use and improve air quality.
"We are looking forward to presenting Nansulate technology to schools in New York, and other areas," stated Mark Kabbash of Earth Energy Enterprises. "The technology represents the next step in reduction of energy use by means of clean, thin film insulation that is affordable and provides consistent insulating performance over time. Collegiate School is one at the forefront of the Green Schools initiative and they have chosen to use Nansulate in an application on their facility. It makes sense to reduce operating costs of schools with an affordable technology such as Nansulate and take the savings that have been achieved by commercial and industrial customers (between 20%-40%) and utilize that savings in schools. Less money spent on heating and cooling means more can be spent on students and teachers. We are excited about this Saturday and look forward to providing a sustainable schools solution."
"The idea for the event builds upon three years of grassroots collaboration among K-12 schools to become more environmentally sustainable," said Harrison Monsky, lead organizer for the event and a senior at Collegiate, "The rationale and desire for sustainability exists; now schools want to know how to do it. The resources exist today and it is a matter of connecting 'the will' and 'the way.'"
About the Green Schools Alliance
The Green Schools Alliance (GSA) is a non-profit program, created by schools for schools, to coordinate the concerns of the nation's 120,000 pre-K to grade 12 public, private and independent schools about climate change and the environment into collective action to protect our shared future. Inspired by Mayor Bloomberg's challenge to NYC institutions to reduce their carbon footprint 30% by 2030, the GSA launched in October 2007 with the support of the Mayor's Office, the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) and other national, state and local partners. http://www.greenschoolsalliance.org
