STATE OF FLORIDA 

With the longest coastline of the 

48 contiguous states, 41 aquatic 

preserves and three of the nation’s 

National Estuarine Research Reserves, 

Florida is undeniably an 

ocean state. Over the last five 

years, Florida has established the 

benchmark for ocean protection 

by significantly restricting offshore 

drilling, establishing the Tortugas 

Ecological Reserve as one of the 

largest marine reserves in the 

world, creating a “no-discharge 

zone” in the Florida Keys National 

Marine Sanctuary and developing 

partnerships with the cruise ship 

and marine industries to improve 

environmental management practices. 

Upgrading wastewater systems 

and acquiring land in the 

Florida Keys is also protecting the 

third largest barrier reef in the 

world. 

ATTRIBUTES: 

• The only barrier reef system in North America. 

• Most extensive potential coral reef ecosystems in the 

U.S. 

• Highly visited and utilized reefs. 

• Large research data base. 

• South Florida easily accessible international 

destination: 3 gateway airports. 

• Degradation, common to the world’s reefs. 

• Significant economic impact. 

• Intensive management. 


Sanctioning Organization 

International Society of 

Reef Studies (ISRS) 

• Founded in 1980, ISRS is the 

largest society of reef scientists 

in the world, with over 800 

members. 

• The principal objective of ISRS 

is to promote the production 

and dissemination of scientific 

knowledge and understanding 

of coral reefs, both living and 

fossil, for public benefit. 

• The ISRS publishes Briefing Papers 

and Statements about the 

state of coral reefs for the benefit 

of the wider community. 

• ISRS produces and distributes 

the quarterly scientific journal 

Coral Reefs containing peer-reviewed 

scholarly works on the 

geology, biology, ecology, and 

environmental issues regarding 

the world’s coral reefs. 

• ISRS holds annual meetings, 

sponsors biannual conferences, 

prints and distributes the 

newsletter Reef Encounter, and 

supports students through fellowships. 

• ISRS sanctions the world’s 

major coral reef science meeting, 

the International Coral 

Reef Symposium (ICRS), held 

every 4 years.

Malcolm 

McCulloch, 

The Australian 

National 

University, Australia 

Lessons from 

the Past 

Monday, July 7, 10:00AM 

Professor Malcolm McCulloch 

grew-up in Western Australia 

where he received undergraduate 

training in the physical sciences. In 

1980 he was awarded a Ph.D. from 

the Division of Earth and Planetary 

Sciences at the California Institute 

of Technology and then returned to 

Australia to take-up a Research Fellowship 

at The Australian National 

University in the Research School 

of Earth Sciences. At ANU he was 

responsible for establishing a new 

range of geochemical methods to 

better understand how the Earth’s 

continental crust and mantle has 

grown and evolved. For the past 

decade his research interests have 

increasingly focused on the modern 

part of the geologic record, 

using isotopic and trace element 

methods to determine how climate 

and anthropogenic processes have 

influenced both past and present 

environments, with particular emphasis 

on coral reefs. Using geochemical 

proxies preserved in the 

long-lived (300 to 400 year old) 

coral skeletons from the Great Barrier 

Reef he has been able to show 

how European settlement and associated 

land-use practices has led to 

a five to ten fold increase in sediment 

and nutrient fluxes entering 

the reef relative to ‘natural’ levels. 

This has provided important quantitative 

evidence to support enhanced 

National-State protective 

measures. Using a similar geochemical 

isotope-based approach, 

his group has also been able to 

show that the effects of rapidly increasing 

levels of anthropogenic 

CO 2 are now becoming evident in 

living corals, reinforcing the concerns 

about the impact of ocean 

acidity on coral reef systems. He 

has also undertaken research on 

fossil coral reefs, in particular those 

from the Last Interglacial, where he 

has demonstrated the realities of 

an ~4 meter higher sea-levels associated 

with warmer sea surface 

temperatures, providing a benchmark 

for likely future increases. He 

an Associate Director of the ARC 

Centre of Excellence in Coral Reef 

studies and has received a number 

of awards including Fellowship of 

the Australian Academy of Science 

(2004), the American Geophysical 

Union (2002) and most recently 

the Geochemical Society (2008). 

Joan Kleypas, National Center 

for Atmospheric Research, 

USA 

Helping Coral 

Reefs Through 

Climate Change 

Crisis: Mission 

Possible 

Monday, July 7, 

2:00PM 

Joanie Kleypas is a scientist at the 

National Center for Atmospheric 

Research who specializes on the effects 

of climate change on marine 

ecosystems. She studied fish ecology 

toward a Master's degree at the 

University of South Carolina, and 

completed her Ph.D. at James 

Cook University in Australia, working 

under Professor David Hopley 

(and alongside Rob van Woesik) on 

the ecology and geology of the 

Southern Great Barrier Reef. 

For the last 10 years, Joanie's work 

has focused on two main aspects of 

rising atmospheric carbon dioxide 

concentration: global warming and 

ocean acidification. "Ocean acidification" 

refers to the progressive, 

global reduction in seawater pH 

that results from the ocean's increased 

uptake of atmospheric carbon 

dioxide. Joanie was introduced 

to this concept by Dr. Bob Buddemeier, 

whose ability to synthesize 

information from geochemistry, hydrology, 

biology and paleontology 

allowed him to forecast the potentially 

far-reaching effects of this fundamental 

change on the ocean 

carbon cycle and biosphere. Building 

on, but never matching Bob's 

vision, Joanie takes a broad-brush 

approach to studying how climate 

change and ocean acidification will 

affect coral reefs. She works with 

marine chemists, coral physiologists, 

ecologists, and geologists to 

investigate how coral reef ecosystems, 

and indeed the reef structures 

themselves, will change over 

the course of this century. Her 

work aims to improve our ability to 

predict which reefs are least vulnerable 

to future warming and acidification, 

and thus improve the 

success of conservation strategies.

Morelos in the Caribbean coast of 

the Yucatan Peninsula. 

Roberto’s main research interest is 

the photobiology of the symbiotic 

associations between zooxanthellae 

and reef-building corals. His work 

has been focused on the ecological 

and evolutionary consequences of 

symbiont specificity in corals, the 

effects of thermal and light stress 

on the organization of the photosynthetic 

apparatus of symbiotic dinoflagellates, 

and the role of coral 

skeletons as modulators of the intracellular

Coral Reef 

Fisheries: 

A Re-Assessment of 

Their Ecological and 

Socioeconomic Impacts 

Wednesday, July 9, 2:00PM 

Since 2003 Dr Pauly has been the 

Director of Fisheries Centre at the 

University of British Columbia 

(UBC) in Vancouver, Canada. He 

joined UBC as Professor of Fisheries 

in 1994, after many years at 

the International Centre for Living 

Aquatic Resource Management 

(ICLARM), then in Manila, Philippines. 

Dr. Pauly has authored over 500 

scientific articles, book chapters 

and shorter contributions, and has 

authored or edited 30 books and 

reports. These documents, mainly 

dedicated to the management of 

fisheries (including coral reef fisheries), 

and to ecosystem modeling 

(including coral reef ecosystems), 

present concepts, methods and 

software which are used throughout 

the world. This applies, notably, 

to the ecosystem modeling approach 

incorporated in the Ecopath 

software (see www.ecopath.org), to 

FishBase, the online encyclopedia 

of fishes (see www.fishbase.org), 

and the global mapping of fisheries 

trends (see www.seaaroundus.org), 

all of which are strong support systems 

for coral reef research. 

Two books On the Sex of Fishes and 

the Gender of Scientist: a Collection 

of Essays in Fisheries Science (Chapman 

and Hall, 1994) and Méthodes 

pour l'évaluation des ressources 

halieutiques (Cépaduès-Éditions, 

1997) summarize much previous 

work, as do his articles “Fishing 

Down Marine Food Webs” (Science, 

February 6, 1998), and “Toward 

Sustainability in World 

Fisheries” (Nature, August 8, 2002). 

Two other books (In a Perfect 

Ocean: fisheries and ecosystem in 

the North Atlantic. Island Press, 

2003; and Darwin's Fishes: an encyclopedia 

of ichthyology, ecology 

and evolution. Cambridge University 

Press, 2004) document his current 

interests. 

Dr. Pauly, a Fellow of the Royal Society 

of Canada (Academy of Science) 

since 2003, has received 

numerous awards for this work, notably 

the Award of Excellence of the 

American Fisheries Society (2004), 

the International Cosmos Prize from 

the Expo ‘90 Foundation of Japan 

(2005), and the Volvo Environmental 

Prize from the Volvo Foundation, 

Stockholm. Profiles of D. 

Pauly were published in Science, 

Nature and The New York Times, 

among others.

NOAA Administrator 

Address 

Vice Admiral 

Conrad C. 

Lautenbacher, Jr., 

U.S. Navy (Ret.) 

Thursday, 

July 10 

8:30 – 8:45AM 

A native of Philadelphia, Pa., retired 

Navy Vice Admiral Conrad C. 

Lautenbacher, Ph.D., is serving as 

the undersecretary of commerce 

for oceans and atmosphere as administrator 

of the National Oceanic 

and Atmospheric Administration. 

He holds an M.S. and Ph.D. from 

Harvard University in applied 

mathematics. 

Lautenbacher oversees the day-today 

functions of NOAA, as well as 

laying out its strategic and operational 

future. The agency manages 

an annual budget of $4 billion. The 

agency includes, and is comprised 

of the National Environmental 

Satellite, Data and Information 

Services; National Marine Fisheries 

Service; National Ocean Service; 

National Weather Service; Oceanic 

and Atmospheric Research; Marine 

and Aviation Operations; and the 

NOAA Corps, the nation's seventh 

uniformed service. He directed an 

extensive review and reorganization 

of the NOAA corporate structure 

to meet the environmental 

challenges of the 21st century. 

As the NOAA administrator, Lautenbacher 

spearheaded the firstever 

Earth Observation Summit, 

which hosted ministerial-level representation 

from several dozen of 

the world's nations in Washington 

July 2003. Through subsequent international 

summits and working 

groups, he worked to encourage 

world scientific and policy leaders 

to work toward a common goal of 

building a sustained Global Earth 

Observation System of Systems 

(GEOSS) that would collect and 

disseminate data, information and 

models to stakeholders and decision 

makers for the benefit of all 

nations individually and the world 

community collectively. The effort 

culminated in an agreement for a 

10-year implementation plan for 

GEOSS reached by the 55 member 

countries of the Group on Earth 

Observations at the Third Observation 

Summit held in Brussels February 

2005. 

In this International Year of the 

Reef, Lautenbacher is committed to 

coral reef research, and educating 

the public about the threats coral 

reefs face and what we can do to 

mitigate those threats. 

Before joining NOAA, Lautenbacher 

formed his own management 

consultant business, and 

worked principally for Technology, 

Strategies & Alliances Inc. He was 

president and CEO of the Consortium 

for Oceanographic Research 

and Education (CORE). This notfor-profit 

organization has a membership 

of 76 institutions of higher 

learning and a mission to increase 

basic knowledge and public support 

across the spectrum of ocean 

sciences. 

Lautenbacher is a graduate of the 

U.S. Naval Academy (Class of 

1964), and has won accolades for 

his performance in a broad range 

of operational, command and staff 

positions both ashore and afloat. 

He retired after 40 years of service 

in the Navy. His military career was 

marked by skilled fiscal management 

and significant improvements 

in operations through performance-based 

evaluations of 

processes. 

Lautenbacher lives in Northern Virginia 

with his wife Susan who is a 

life-long high school and middle 

school science teacher. 


ISRS Presidential 

Address: Science 

and Advocacy 

Richard B. Aronson 

President, ISRS 


8:45 – 9:30AM 

The worldwide crisis 

on coral reefs has blurred the distinction 

between science and advocacy. 

Objective science is critical to 

understanding the relative impacts 

of numerous causal agents. Because 

policy recommendations will 

differ depending on which causes 

exert the greatest influence, scientists 

must be explicit about when 

they are acting as advocates rather 

than conveying scientific results. 

Legitimate scientific debate is 

healthy and in no way diminishes 

the goal of creating cogent policy, 

whereas forced idealogical unification 

is the surest route to disaster. 

Although science must move forward 

unfettered by political expediency, 

the situation is dire enough 

to warrant continuing action in parallel 

with continuing research if we 

are to save coral reefs. The public 

message from scientists and advocates 

alike should be positive, suffused 

with hope, and cast in ethical 

as well as pragmatic terms. 

Rich Aronson, President of the International 

Society for Reef Studies, 

grew up in New York City. He received 

his Bachelor’s degree in Biological 

Sciences, summa cum 

laude, from Dartmouth College in 

1979 and his Ph.D. in Biology from 

Harvard University in 1985. After 

completing a NATO postdoctoral 

fellowship in the UK and postdocs 

at the Smithsonian Institution and 

Rutgers University, Rich joined the 

faculty of the Dauphin Island Sea 

Lab in 1994. He is Senior Marine 

Scientist at the Sea Lab and Professor 

of Marine Sciences at the Uni-

versity of South Alabama. He also 

holds an adjunct appointment in 

the Department of Invertebrate Zoology 

at the Natural History Museum 

of Los Angeles County. Rich’s 

research combines ecological and 

geological approaches to test hypotheses 

about the historical significance 

of climate change and 

disease outbreaks on coral reefs. 

He served as Vice President of ISRS 

from 2003 to 2007. In 2009, Rich 

will move to the Florida Institute of 

Technology, where he will become 

Head of Biological Sciences. 

Mini-Symposium 

Sessions 

The 11th ICRS science program has 

been organized to address contemporary 

scientific questions within 

the framework of a series of 

twenty-six Mini-Symposium topics. 

Each mini-symposium is similar to 

concurrent sessions of the past 

symposiums with provocative questions 

and thematic guidance that 

was used in selecting the oral and 

poster presentations. The Mini- 

Symposia are intended to provide 

information on and address particular 

problems and issues facing 

contemporary coral reefs to help 

ensure favorable conditions for future 

reefs. 

The Mini-Symposium sessions are 

held as concurrent sessions 

throughout the convention center. 

For detailed scheduling information 

refer to the Program-At-A-Glance, 

Daily Schedule, or the Mini-Symposium 

listings in this book. 

Guidelines for 

Oral Presentations 

• All oral presenters are required 

to check-in at the Speaker 

Ready Room (Room 222/223) 

at least 24 hours prior to the 

assigned session start time.

open daily Sunday (1:00- 

6:00PM), Monday (7:00AM – 

7:00PM), Tuesday – Thursday 

(7:00AM – 5:00PM), and Friday 

(7:00AM – 3:00PM). 

• Each speaker is allotted 12 

minutes for an oral presentation 

and 3 minutes for question 

and answer with the 

audience. All speakers are 

kindly requested to strictly observe 

the allotted presentation 

time in consideration of the 

other speakers. 

• Personal laptops are not permitted 

to be connected to 

audio-visual equipment in the 

session rooms. 

• Each room will have one technician 

in the room throughout 

the duration of the session to

Media Outreach 

Can This Relationship 

Be Saved? Why Journalists 

and Scientists Just Don’t 

Communicate – 

SeaWeb/Compass Panel 

Discussion and Reception 


6:15-7:30PM 

Floridian Ballroom D - 3rd Floor 

Followed immediately by a 

reception in the Floridian Ballroom 

Lobby; 7:30 - 9:00PM. 

This evening panel is sure to provide 

fireworks to end your day. Top 

scientists and premiere journalists 

will go head to head. 

Reporters need plain talk. Scientists 

need details. Reporters need 

overviews. Scientists need caveats. 

You get the idea. Audience participation 

will be unscripted and decidedly 

not peer reviewed as we 

investigate how to make this relationship 

work. This interactive debate 

will be co-moderated by Jeff 

Burnside of NBC's WTVJ in Miami 



and Nancy Baron, COMPASS 

Ocean Science Outreach Director. 

The discussion will be continued 

afterwards over light hors d'oeuvres 

and drinks. This will be the place to 

meet and mingle with journalists 

attending ICRS. 

Special Sessions: 

NOAA Coral Program Forum: 

Translating Science into 

Management 

Friday, July 11, 2008 

10:00 – 11:00AM 

Floridian Ballroom D 

Facilitator: David Kennedy, 

manager of the NOAA Coral 

Reef Conservation Program 

The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration (NOAA) 

Coral Reef Conservation Program 

(CRCP) is a leader in the effort to 

preserve reef ecosystems. In late 

2007, the CRCP solicited an external 

review to assess the program’s 

effectiveness in achieving its mandates 

and to provide recommendations 

for improving its impact and 

performance. In this forum, senior 

NOAA officials and members of the 

science, management and nongovernmental 

organization communities 

will hold a panel 

discussion focused on one of the 

largest challenges facing effective 

reef conservation: how to better integrate 

natural and social science 

with effective coral reef management. 

Improving the link between 

coral reef science and management 

is major element of the external review’s 

recommendations and the 

CRCP's plans for the future, and is 

an issue that transcends the work 

of any one organization. This forum 

is an opportunity for the CRCP’s 

current and potential future scientific 

and management partners, 

grantees, and stakeholders to interact 

with NOAA leadership on the 

direction of coral reef conservation 

in the United States. 

ITMEMS Special Session - The 

Translation of Science into 

Practical Actions and Strategies 

for Management 


11:00 – 11:45AM 


Facilitator: Kristian Teleski, Ph.D., 

ICRAN 

An open, facilitated discussion 

among those present. All are invited. 

The goal of the International Tropical 

Marine Ecosystems Management 

Symposium (ITMEMS - 

www.itmems.org) is to develop the 

capacities of coastal and marine 

managers to implement programs 

and projects that support the conservation 

and sustainable use of 

coral reefs and related ecosystems 

at the local, national, regional and 

global levels. Integral to this is 

good coral reef science and the 

translation of this science into practical 

actions and strategies for management. 

ICRS is an important 

opportunity to capture the current 

coral reef and tropical marine 

ecosystem thinking and science, 

and feed this into the next IT- 

MEMS. Likewise ITMEMS is an opportunity 

for managers to make 

recommendations for input from 

the scientific community and identify 

needs that should be filled by 

science. ICRS delegates are encouraged 

to consider how their work 

could contribute to effective coral 

reef management and how this can 

be achieved over short time scales 

for urgent issues (i.e. not constrained 

by normal publication 

timelines) and, over longer time 

scales, to build time series to understand 

change and management 

of coral reefs and human pressures 

that affect them. 


Regional Workshop 

Special Session - 

Regional Workshops on 

Scientific and Science 

Information Needs for 

Coral Reef Management 


11:45AM-12:30PM 


Facilitator: John W. McManus, 

Ph.D. 

This will be an open, facilitated discussion 

among those attending. 

Given the rapid decline of the 

world’s coral reefs, it is vital that 

decision-makers, stakeholders, and 

coral reef managers have ready access 

to the best relevant scientific 

information available, and that scientists 

work to provide the answers 

to questions critical to reef management. 

As the world’s premier 

gathering of coral reef scientists, 

the ICRS is an ideal forum for identifying 

how scientific investigations 

and information systems can be 

best focused to facilitate better 

coral reef management. This session 

will present the results of two 

international pre-symposium workshops 

on these topics, held in the 

Caribbean and Indo-Pacific, respectively. 

Following a brief presentation 

of the workshop findings, a 

facilitated discussion will provide 

opportunities for session participants 

to contribute to the identification 

of priority needs. The results 

will be made widely available via 

the Internet to reef scientists, funding 

agencies, and the public.

The International Coral Reef Initiative is a unique 

public-private partnership that brings together governments, 

international organisations, scientific entities 

and non-governmental organisations committed 

to reversing the global degradation of coral reefs and 

related ecosystems, such as mangrove forests and seagrass 

meadows, by promoting the conservation and 

sustainable use of these resources for future generations. 

Since its establishment in 1995, ICRI has been 

a driving force behind scientific, governmental and 

civil society efforts to protect coral reefs and related 

ecosystems. The ICRI approach is to provide a platform 

for information sharing, as well as to mobilize 

governments and a wide range of other stakeholders 

in an effort to improve management practices, in-

In Memoriam 

Carl Robert Beaver: 

April 1, 1959 – December 18, 2006 

Carl was a coral reef scientist researcher and 

teacher first and foremost. For the greater part of 

his career he was a mentor and instructor to many 

that crossed his path in lecture halls and laboratories 

of Texas A & M University in Corpus Christi, 

Texas. He taught many and was very well thought 

of by his horned toad colleagues. He took great 

pride and enjoyment in setting up field trips to the 

Mexican reefs. Often he drove a vehicle or sailed 

down the Gulf of Mexico to Vera Cruz and other 

venues. He was rich with friendships from these 

days on the Mexican reefs. 

Carl made a major career change when he took a 

job with the State of Florida as the manager of the 

coral reef monitoring group at the Florida Fish and 

Wildlife Research Institute in St. Petersburg. Here, 

it was not teaching so much as coordinating a complex 

and multi-faceted research and monitoring 

1:00 – 2:00PM

and Dive Professionals, by

2:00 – 2:30PM 

REEF Volunteer Fish Survey Project 

and Database, by Christy Pattengill- 

Semmens, Reef Environmental Education 

Foundation (REEF) 

project in the Florida Keys. Some of us had the 

pleasure and privilege of working with Carl and 

learned his passions and pleasures. 

Carl nurtured and trained a group of younger scientists. 

The challenge of laboring under the constraints 

of a state agency was challenging, and Carl 

was able to focus on the goal of excellence in the 

science products. He persevered in spite of 

weather, gear, and bureaucratic hurdles. His memory 

should be inspiration to us all. Peace Carl. 

As we participate in the 11th International Coral 

Reef Symposium, reflect on the scientists that have 

passed on and the great legacy of coral reef research 

that has graced the halls of the symposiums 

that preceded this one. Although we know a lot, 

there is still much to do.

All photographers are encouraged 

to post their images to The Marine 

Photobank, which is a leading visual 

resource that has galvanized 

people from all over the planet to 

collect, share and download marine 

photos, images and graphics 

that shed light on how humans 

have affected life in the ocean. The 

Marine Photobank was founded in 

response to a lack of readily available, 

high quality underwater and 

above water ocean conservation 

images. These images are available 

at no cost for non-commercial purposes 

as well as for media use. To 

learn more about Marine Photobank 

and to contribute 

your photos, visit

Green Meeting Initiatives - 

How Green is this Meeting? 

The 11th International Coral Reef 

Symposium is proud to announce 

that it is a ‘Carbon Neutral’ event. 

This is the first ICRS to take environmental 

commitment one step 

farther and implement green strategies 

to the meeting activities. The 

11th ICRS is an officially registered 

event with Carbonfund.org. CO2 

emissions generated from travel 

and the event itself will be offset 

with Carbonfund.org by supporting 

their renewable energy, energy efficiency, 

and reforestation projects. 

In addition to offsetting the carbon 

footprint of the 11th ICRS, green 

strategies have been adopted at 

multiple levels of the planning and 

implementation of the meeting. 

The Local Organizing Committee 

(LOC) and its Green Committee 

have worked with the Convention 

Center and our other meeting partners 

to reduce, reuse, recycle, and 

promote environmental conservation 

throughout this meeting. 

11th ICRS Meeting 

We have made conscientious efforts 

to use recycled paper for our 

meeting materials including advance 

registration and exhibit 

booklets, the program book, and 

abstract book all being printed on 

recycled-content paper. 

Our badge paper is made of a renewable 

resource of eucalyptus 

trees which are farmed in South 

America. These tree farms yield in 

4-6 years as opposed to 7-10 years 

in the natural environment. Also, 

the dyes used in the printing are 

done with environmentally friendly 

dyes rather than harsh chemicals 

and bleaches. 

After the symposium, please drop 

your badge holder in the collection 

bin in the registration area or at the 

Hall A entrance of the convention 

center. If you will not be reusing 

your lanyard please drop this in our 

collection box as well to be reused 

at future meetings. 

The quantity of paper generated 

should be substantially reduced 

compared to past meetings by providing 

attendees with the option of 

viewing the abstracts online. During 

the registration process, attendees 

were asked if they preferred 

to view the abstracts electronically 

or as a printed copy. The attendees 

interested in viewing the abstracts 

online can use the abstract 

kiosks located in Hall A to search 

the database. 

After the meeting, the post-symposium 

proceedings will be available 

either as a hardcopy or electronically 

on a CD. 


The Broward Convention Center 

already has a green management 

plan in place which primarily focuses 

on energy use and water 

consumption. The ICRS has chosen 

to reduce the use of air conditioning 

by increasing the air temperature 

to slightly warmer 

temperatures instead of the usual 

68°F. Lighting is centrally monitored 

and turned off in unused rooms. All 

restrooms in the convention center 

use water saving devices. All cleaning 

products used are environmentally 

friendly and all paper towels 

and toilet paper are made with recycled 

paper. As a consequence of 

both the recent drought and environmental 

policy, the convention 

center has only native plants on its 

property, which are less needy on 

the environment. The exterior 

fountain at the convention center 

uses only re-circulated water. 

The food provided will be bought 

as locally as possible to prevent unnecessary 

transportation or preservation 

of foods. Excess foods will 

be delivered to the local shelter, 

Daily Bread, as a donation of the 

11th ICRS. Where possible, 

condiments and drinks are provided 

in bulk to limit packaging, 

and disposable utensils and cups 

will be made of 100% biodegradable 

potato starch. All attendees 

will be provided with a reusable 

beverage container to further limit 

the use of disposables. 

Exhibit Hall 

The re-use of products is a high priority. 

For example, the aisle signs 

hanging in the exhibit hall were 

used at another Fort Lauderdale 

meeting in May. These aisle signs 

were removed and stored for two 

months for reuse at the 11th ICRS. 

Other directional signs in use are 

made of materials sturdy enough to 

be used for up to five meetings. 

These signs will be stripped of the 

11th ICRS logos and text and 

reprinted on the same board for 

another meeting. This reduces 

waste not only for us but other 

meetings as well and eliminates the 

traditional one-time use signs. The 

aisle carpeting in the exhibit hall 

will eventually be used for piping 

insulation with a company located 

in Texas.

Transportation 

Transportation during the event has 

been minimized by choosing hotels 

close to the Broward Convention 

Center. This gives attendees an opportunity 

to enjoy the comfortable 

morning temperatures and walk to 

the convention center. 

Hotels 

Finally, the LOC and Green Committee 

have been working alongside 

the Fort Lauderdale Convention 

and Visitors Bureau to encourage 

green strategies at our conference 

hotels. 

The 11th ICRS is one of the first 

meetings to be held at the Broward 

County/Fort Lauderdale Convention 

Center that is recognized as a green 

meeting. 

We are grateful to our partners who 

have spent a year working on this 

initiative to reduce waste and be 

more mindful of our environmental 

footprint. We thank the Broward 

County Convention Center staff, the 

Fort Lauderdale Convention and 

Visitors Bureau, Broward County 

government, The Freeman Company 

and the LOC Green Committee 

(Lottie Purkis, Peggy Strumski, 

and Barbara Dodge) for having the 

foresight and commitment to see 

these efforts become reality and to 

set a standard for the 12th ICRS and 

other meetings in Greater Fort 

Lauderdale.
