A landmark summit was held in Bermuda on the 12th of February 2010 on solar energy and water harvesting and recycling. After reviewing tapes of the sessions and gathering input from our notes and input from the notes of others, a summary of the event has been developed and is attached for your information. 

The intention of the summary was to capture the proceedings of the Summit as stated by the participants, however the statements should not be attributed as quotes by the presenters. There is a great deal of information in the summary and we hope it will serve as an educational reference. We look forward to your comments and suggestions on the summary as we are developing a ‘needs assessment analysis' for Bermuda based on your feedback. This assessment will be then used to design the educational component for the next “Sustainable Living Summit for a Greener Bermuda.”
