Residential Green Building Committee

Residential Green Building Committee 

The Residential Green Building Committee is the newest Committee of the Chapter! Congratulations to the leadership who have worked so hard to establish this group over the last year.

The committee’s objectives are to work to raise the awareness of the benefits of residential green building and remodeling and to increase the quantity of projects registering for LEED for Homes. The committee, through education and outreach, will focus on the following:

  • Hold across MA, Lunch and LEED, education sessions and tours on topics such as Zero Net Energy, Deep Energy Retrofits and REGREEN
  • Help the community understand and implement LEED for Homes and residential green building, remodeling and retrofits
  • Ensure that our target markets are aware of available green building tools and resources
  • Partner with other Green Building Programs
  • Establish a collaborative relationship with a professional and/or community organizations
  • Develop case studies and green residential building content for the USGBC MA website

The commitee will meet monthly. The meetings are typically held at USGBC MA Office, 281 Summer Street, 5th floor, Boston, 02210 from 6:00 - 8:00 pm on or about the second Monday of the month.
