Green Building

Welcome, Green Making Friends!

May 2013

June 2013

What's new

Meet local Architects/building professionals/contractors and any/all others interested in discussing green Architecture and sustainable design. Talk about finished/unfinished projects, materials/LEED certification, energy use and savings, and where to take form, space, and order next!

Green building increases the efficiency with which buildings use resources — energy, water, and materials — while reducing building impacts on human health and the environment during the building's lifecycle, through better siting, design, construction, operation, maintenance, and removal.

Green Building is sponsored by Green Making. Come visit us at www.greenmaking.com/index.php.
