Federal
Summit 2010: Leadership in Sustainability from Coast to Coast
May
18-19, 2010
Washington, D.C.
We
in the green building industry must step up and make sustainable
design, construction and retrofits central to our nation’s economic
recovery. The government sector is a significant part of the job
growth and economic promise of green building. You
can be part of that growth!
Much
of the $787
billion
in federal stimulus money supports green retrofits of publicly owned
buildings at the local, state and federal levels.
The
federal government alone owns and operates some 500,000
buildings.
The
federal government has a 28
percent greenhouse gas reduction target
for federal operations by 2020.
30
percent
of all LEED projects are government-owned.
