What makes a building "green"? A few key organizations are setting the standards for certifying green buildings in the U.S. and abroad. Among these are the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Energy and the United States Green Building Council. Achieving a certification from one or more of these organizations can set your project apart and communicate to your clients, your friends or potential buyers that you build "green".
