Champion Environmental Services, Inc. will be making a presentation at The Building Material Reuse Association (BMRA) Conference “DECON '09” on April 29, 2009.
Terrence O’Rourke will be reporting on two successful large scale demolition projects in Wisconsin that yielded high recycling rates. The focus of the presentation will resolve some of the concerns of “demolition” versus “deconstruction” practices. Conference attendees will come to recognize that successful demolition practices employ deconstruction techniques.
The difference between demolition and deconstruction points to preconceived linguistic associations; deconstruction is a word which evokes a notion of a controlled, clean, more environmentally friendly approach to resolving old building material salvage whereas demolition suggests harsh imagery of reckless destruction.
Ultimately, conference attendees will understand that companies such as Champion Environmental Services, Inc., have acted as stewards of the environment long before movements toward green initiatives took hold in America.
