Churchville Nature Center’s New Green Building

Green buildings avoid or minimize negative impacts on the environment by conserving and using natural resources efficiently. A green building facilitates ecological harmony and respect for biodiversity in relation to buildings and architecture. Churchville Nature Center’s New Green Building will incorporate green and sustainable design features, which will allow it to become LEED certified. LEED stands for Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design and is a nationally recognized green building rating system formulated by the U.S. Green Building Council to provide a national standard for what constitutes a green building.
