About Green Building

The built environment has a profound impact on our natural environment, economy, health, and productivity. In the United States alone, buildings account for 65% of electricity consumption, 36% of energy use, 30% of greenhouse gas emissions, 30% of raw materials use, 30% of waste output (136 million tons annually), and 12% of potable water consumption.

LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) certified buildings lower operating costs, reduce waste sent to landfills, conserve energy and water, are healthier and safer for occupants, reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions, qualify for tax rebates, and demonstrate an owner's commitment to environmental stewardship and social responsibility.

Northeast Engineers is offering LEED Professional Accreditation workshops for professionals who are preparing to take the LEED AP exam or for those who want to learn more about the USGBC rating and LEED certification system. The workshops will be held on Thursdays from 8:00AM-9:30AM at 55 John Clarke Rd. in Middletown starting on April 17th.
