Odyssey Day 1st Annual Conference
What is the Odyssey Day 1st Annual Conference?
Odyssey Day is an outreach and education event dedicated to promoting cleaner choices in transportation. Our mission is to educate the public on public and private business leaders who are committed to greening their own local communities by spreading the word on alternative fuel vehicles and technologies.
The 1st Annual Conference, held as a mini-conference on October 9th, is co-hosted by NYU-Poly. Empire Clean Cities’ goal is to discuss emerging topics around sustainability, and answer questions like what is NYC doing to be innovative, and what can we learn from other cities and their innovative solutions.
