USENIX Conferences Are Green!
We are pleased to announce our commitment to producing a conference that is environmentally responsible. We are working with our suppliers to implement policies that minimize the negative impact on the environment. Here are just a few ways that we're making this happen:

  • The conference directory is printed on recycled paper.
  • The Hyatt participates in a towel and sheet reuse program.
  • You can help, too! Please recycle your name badge at the USENIX registration desk when you depart.
