Annotation: August 13, 2009 is D-Day for Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson's sustainability summit --
the creative three-day gathering of more than 700 people from across the region grappling with
how to move Northeast Ohio's economy toward sustainable practices. David Cooperrider, a
professor at the Weatherhead School of Business at Case Western Reserve University and the
developer of the dynamic interactions used in the conference, said he expects concrete proposals
before the summit ends this afternoon. "This group is amazing," he said Thursday, an eventful
day that included outbursts of exuberant enthusiasm from the crowd as well as grueling hard
work in small teams.
