What is an Unconference:
An Unconference is a participant-driven conference centered around a theme or purpose and is a forum for creativity, engineering, and innovation.

Why Green AND Software?:
A January Fast Company article deemed the Sustainability Systems Developer one of the Ten Best Green Jobs for the next decade.
The article states: "The green economy needs a cadre of specialized software developers and engineers who design, build, and maintain the networks of sensors and stochastic modeling that underpin wind farms, smart energy grids, congestion pricing and other systems substituting intelligence for natural resources. Coders with experience using large scale enterprise resource planning have an edge here, as well as developers familiar with open source and web 2.0 applications."

Software examples include:
1. IBM - sensors & software to manage H2O
2. Lil Green Patch FB App saved 96,124,167 Sq ft of Rainforest so far
3. Go Green Mobile Carbon Tracking
4. Bon Appetit Management Co's Low Carbon Diet Website
