Vancouver... The Greenest City in North America?

Here is a link to a great article written by one of the Senior Partners here at CEI.

In this article John Scott talks about Vancouver's mandate to become the "Greenest City in North America" and how the city intends to achieve this.

"While we all look forward to more creative ways to reduce our collective carbon footprint, given the fact that buildings are arguably responsible for half of the energy consumed by our civilized world, the expectation for each and every building developer and owner to contribute to a solution will increase rapidly in Vancouver over the decade ahead."
John Scott
