New York sets the path for going green!

In the past year several very important, large strides have been made to turn NY into one of the nation's "green" cities. This has been no easy task as one can imagine, but the good folks at the USGBC in New York are on the right path. Last week several very important people including Mayor Bloomberg met at the Museum of Natural History to give out awards and to recognize the many companies and organizations stepping up and making a difference in New York.

Basically what is happening is builders are starting to realize the importance of not only building new buildings around green technology, but also in recycling old materials when tearing down structures. It seems that LEEDS is making strides left and right and over the coming years you will see more and more companies offering their expertise as more people are certified in the program. Let's hope that this trend picks up in other major cities across the US.
