Bio
The mission of Urban Green Council is to transform buildings for a sustainable future in New York City and around the world.
We believe the critical issue facing the world today is climate change. We focus efforts to improve the energy efficiency of buildings, which in New York City consume 95 percent of electricity, emit 70 percent of carbon and use 80 percent of water. As we improve building sustainability in New York City and around the world, we can deliver a more resilient, efficient, healthy and affordable future.
