(Taking Back Our Neighborhoods Everyday). According to Glover, "By going green, Shreveport will be at the very heart of one of the largest recycling programs in theSouth. By going green, we're taking one more giant step to becoming the next great city of the South." "SMG joins the City in expressing how extremely pleased we are to host this exciting and timely new event at the Shreveport Convention Center," said Sam Voisin, SMG general manager. "I cannot think of a more relevant topic than green initiatives. In fact, the Convention Center has introduced several new programs in recent months to address the issue, including, among others, a new energy management program and theimplementation of eco-friendly paper products in our food service area."
