U.S. Green Building Council Joins Glass Expo Rocky Mountain™ 2006

The U.S. Green Building Council, or at least the local Colorado chapter, will participate in Glass Expo Rocky Mountain 2006 as a co-sponsor of the event and a participant in the "Think Tank" at the Glass Show on January 19 and 20.

The U.S. Green Building Council is a nonprofit coalition "for advancing buildings that are environmentally responsible, profitable and healthy places to live and work," members of which range from building owners and users to real estate developers, building managers, architects, designers, engineers, contractors, government agencies and environmental groups.

Colorado currently has 41 projects that are either LEED® certified or in the works, including the EPA Region 8 Headquarters Building and the law centers at the University of Denver and the University of Colorado-Boulder.

The Colorado Glazing Contractors Association (CGCA) created the "Think Tank" as an area to exchange ideas, network and communicate with multiple regional associations all in one place and will include the AIA Colorado and the U.S. Green Building Council.
