Smart builder

Really enjoy reading your stuff.

I am about to build a 6 story building in the Lower East Side, and while I realize it will not make any difference I am interested in installing solar panels and other energy saving devices.

"Thanks for reaching out. You are right, of course, that turning your building green won't stop global warming, but you are also showing that incentives work. If everyone asked these questions, it would surely make a dent — for the planet and for your bottom line. I'm no expert on green building initiatives, but I'd reach out to the US Green Building Council: www.usgbc.org"

I found a company… They claim to help building owners reduce costs and move towards green.

They were talking significant savings.

Incentives at work.
