The benefits of a green building show up in energy cost savings, healthier environments for employees and buildings that are developed in an environmentally sensitive manner. “Green” is no longer a fad — it has become a corporate responsibility. Learn how you can begin to implement change and enhance the bottom line. The speakers will help demystify what being green means. Participants will learn about the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED Rating System and strategies that will help enhance worker productivity, reduce absenteeism and lower energy costs.
