*Monthly Forum: Green Catwalk 2019*

Happy New Year from GreenHomeNYC!

As 2019 gets going, we’re starting off the year with our classic Green
Catwalk forum, where we bring in speakers to present on new, innovative,
unheard of, and just plain interesting topics, technologies, trends and
organizations within the sustainability space. This year we will include
presentations on solar fabrics, water efficiency and sustainable plumbing,
as well as strategies to effectively discuss sustainability and climate
change, among other topics. Join us!

In addition, our first volunteer orientation of the year will take place
right before the event, starting at 6 PM. If you’re interested in joining
GreenHomeNYC as a volunteer, please sign up at

About our venue:

At TOTO <https://www.totousa.com/>, we’ve always been inspired by a desire
to improve everyone’s quality of life. Through almost a century rich with
innovation, TOTO has changed the perception of what a bathroom can be — and
how it can be used.

Our founder, Kazuchika Okura, had a vision more than one hundred years ago
in 1912, before the concept of public sewage systems was widespread in
Japan. After seeing more advanced systems overseas, he was moved to
establish a ceramic sanitary ware laboratory to develop healthier and
cleaner living spaces.

In 1917, Okura founded Toyo Toki K.K. (which became known as TOTO LTD.) to
supply the market with these products. TOTO was founded on a commitment to
provide a comfortable living space for people, while always protecting the
planet and its water.

Japan’s rich artistic heritage in pottery and porcelain is alive in every
TOTO product we create today. Throughout our expansion worldwide, TOTO has
remained true to the Japanese traditions that have shaped our Company Motto
and Philosophy.
