Mission: Greengoat works with contractors, architects, and building owners to maximize resource conservation during construction.
Programs: (home to home) greengoat successfully rescues tons of residential material each year through multiple projects throughout the state. Rescued energy can be quantified into billions btus of embodied energy, and tons of co2 each year. We present our historic preservation work at various local societies. Along those lines, we host a local preservation trades school at a historic mansions to teach others techniques to remove fragile building materials for reuse.
(office to office) this program represents the commercial sector of operations.
(green building & market development) we continued our spot as guest lecturer with the boston architectural college in their sustainability-for-executives program, offering "lessons from the road" and offering insight into industry trends. Our affordable housing programming continued with two projects needing a boost on their recycling and waste management plans. Working with local housing authorities, we advised on how to improve diversion rates and reporting accuracy.
