Verdigris Group Celebrates 3rd Year of Leadership in Carbon Neutral Business Practice
Summary
LEED addresses all building types and emphasizes state-of-the-art strategies in five areas: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials and resources selection, and indoor environmental quality.Mr. Hasenstab told us, “It’s critical to our nation’s future social, economic and environmental sustainability that the planning, design and construction of our built-environment, as well as the reconstruction of our legacy building-stock, be thoroughly supported by a triple bottom-line recognition of the impact that our activities have on our future success, and this, I believe is what the USGBC is accomplishing through its continuing leadership in this domain.” Verdigris Group’s newest development project in the pipe-line, The Endeavor Townhomes to be located in Ft. Collins, Colorado will not only be seeking LEED Gold Certification, but also the coveted Energy Star for Homes Certification, which Hasenstab says, “will make each townhome a model of sustainable design and energy efficiency, as well as aesthetically and architecturally resonant within its surrounding community.” Keep an eye out Spring of 2010 for further information on this project.BEF is certified by the Center for Resource Solutions’ (CRS) Green-e Climate program, an independent, voluntary, national nonprofit carbon offset consumer protection standard.Since Verdigris Group’s launch as a 100% carbon-neutral organization in 2007, the company based in Chicago with regional offices in Colorado, has developed a dynamic sustainable business model that reflects the primary business activities they perform on a day-to-day basis—Green Property Development, Green Building Consulting / LEED® Certification Management & Support Services, Energy Rating and LEED for Homes Green Rater Services and Sustainable Enterprise Management Consulting.LEED addresses all building types and emphasizes state-of-the-art strategies in five areas: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials and resources selection, and indoor environmental quality.Mr.Hasenstab told us, “It’s critical to our nation’s future social, economic and environmental sustainability that the planning, design and construction of our built-environment, as well as the reconstruction of our legacy building-stock, be thoroughly supported by a triple bottom-line recognition of the impact that our activities have on our future success, and this, I believe is what the USGBC is accomplishing through its continuing leadership in this domain.”Verdigris Group’s newest development project in the pipe-line, The Endeavor Townhomes to be located in Ft.
