As always, we want to be sure you are celebrating Earth Day.  Earth Day is s a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth’s environment.   You can find numerous activities and information on the Earth Day Official Government site.  The U.S. Green Building Council (we are a proud member) is another resource for education and information and you can also visit Earth Day Network.

As a member and supporter of the USGBC and Green Projects, SEI was glad to see that one city (Los Angeles), is being proactive in requiring that any new building project over 50,000 SF be LEED certified. In a city known for smog and traffic, this could reduce carbon monoxide emissions the equivalent of taking 15,000 cars off the road.
