U.S. Green Building Council North Florida Chapter

Description

The U.S. Green Building North Florida Chapter is creating a positive impact on the region’s built environment by accelerating the adoption of green business and development practices, technologies, policies and standards. We endeavor to move those who build, authorize, manage, and use buildings forward with a combination of education events and programs, awareness initiatives, and advocacy campaigns such as modernized code requirements, market-based solutions like "Greening the Multiple Listing Service, and public/private partnerships such as building and sharing a cutting edge Sustainability Resource Center in downtown Jacksonville. The Chapter’s membership is open, balanced, and comprised of leaders and visionaries from all segments of the development industry and public, including product manufacturers, environmental organizations, building owners, building professionals, utilities, city government, research institutions, professional societies, public schools and universities, parents who want green schools, students, homeowners, and renters. This type of representation provides a unique, integrated platform and concerted market transformation.
