| Awareness and Education
The primary mission of the foundation is to increase awareness
about green, sustainable development. Green building makes sense;
It represents a vision for the future. The benefits of building
green are numerous, but the bottom line is that when we design
and build in this manner, we save energy, we create a better place
to work and live, and we better manage our natural resources.
What shall we leave behind for the next generation, and the next?
Any entity that is developing or contemplating a new facitlity,
should be made aware of the benefits and costs. If the foundation
can be a place where people find this information, if we can help
promote sustainable, responsible develoment, then we have done
our jobs. To this end, we are continually, consciously searching
for people and organizations to partner with. We hope this site
will serve as a library, a resource, a gathering place to find
answers that educates, brings attention to, and promotes green
building. Our name, Community Greenhouse Foundation, projects
these goals.
Our mission can only be fulfilled with your help. If you have
educational resources, let us help you get the word out. If you
need help promoting your efforts, contact us. If you need information
and can't locate it, contact us. Share your successes with us--tell
