I'm afraid to ask but...
I have to do a presentation to a prospective client for a green building.
Anyone seen a really cool way to do a green presentation?

make all your text uppercase except for the first letter in each word. my uncle does that in his emails. he's the cool one in the family. sustainable for sure.

at the end of the presentation arrange for hundreds of green dollar bills to fall from above. make the connect between green, rain, and cost savings. you'll blow them away.

make a small ritual...everyone pees in their beer mugs (which they get from home of course), drink it instead of beer, then drive away in their honda priuses

make a presentation board out of sod. but make sure a dog pees on it a couple weeks before hand, so there are all these brown, dead patches of grass surrounded by thick, healthy rings. then pin your drawings on it.

why does it have to be cool? how about it just describes your process, the value of a green building, and the technology that accomplishes it. cool is way over-rated.

If that fails, get a sample of wheatboard to use as the backdrop for your presentation materials - then bite the corner off of it at the end to demonstrate how committed you are to the entire idea.

the all-caps text would be my second bet. brilliant.

don't use paper....don't use models....just stand there and talk with your hands in your pockets...(no pocket pool, that tends to put people off)...
