Building Green

Living green means making choices in our day-to-day lives that enhance, rather than just reduce, our impact on the environment, and that moves us in the direction of a sustainable lifestyle. A sustainable lifestyle fits with the cycles of nature, has a sound economic base, and respects human, animal and plant life. Impacts of that lifestyle do not compromise the ability of future generations to lead a healthy, quality life.

The need to change the way we build, live and consume products has never been greater. On average, the construction, maintenance and use of buildings are responsible for 40% of all the energy use in the U.S. With only 5% of the world's population, the U.S. uses 25% of the world's energy resources and contributes more than 25% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. By building green, we can protect the natural world.
