NYSACC Conference on the Environment - Delegate Registration
About this Event
The 2026 New York Conference on the Environment, hosted by the New York State Association of Conservation Commissions (NYSACC) and the Manhattan Solid Waste Advisory Board (MSWAB), will bring together approximately 250 delegates representing government, academia, industry, nonprofit organizations, and environmental leadership from across New York State.
The Conference is designed to bridge the gap between public policy, scientific research, and innovative technologies that are transforming environmental stewardship and responsible resource recovery.
Held at Cornell Tech on Roosevelt Island in New York City, the Conference will explore the technologies, policies, and partnerships shaping the future of environmental stewardship, conservation, and responsible resource recovery. Featured topics include artificial intelligence, robotics, advanced recycling technologies, circular economy strategies, organics management, composting systems, biochar, biosolids management, textile-to-textile recycling, climate resilience, and sustainable infrastructure.
Designed to encourage meaningful dialogue and collaboration, the Conference will bring together municipal officials, conservation commissioners, policymakers, researchers, environmental professionals, technology innovators, and industry leaders to explore practical solutions to today's environmental challenges and tomorrow's opportunities.
Delegate Registration includes access to keynote presentations, educational sessions, the Innovation Pavilion, networking opportunities, lunch, refreshments, and conference materials.
Whether you are helping shape public policy, developing emerging technologies, conducting research, or implementing environmental solutions, the 2026 New York Conference on the Environment offers a unique opportunity to exchange ideas, build professional relationships, and contribute to the future of environmental stewardship in New York State.
Attendance is intentionally limited to approximately 250 delegates to encourage meaningful discussions, professional networking, collaboration, and the exchange of ideas that inform environmental policy and advance practical solutions.
