April 25, 2005: Green Building Organization Launched
PORTLAND, Ore. - A new national organization, the Green Building Initiative (GBI), was recently created to promote green building approaches for builders, architects, and others involved in residential and commercial construction.
"Historically, green building has been the domain of a relatively small number of niche builders," said Ward Hubbell, executive director of the GBI. "Our goal is to bring green building to the majority."
