Branded

Many building owners only want the green certification for use of the brand. Somehow, the peace of mind and long term savings are a bi-product of being 'perceived' as environmentally conscious. That works well enough for me, so long as they keep up on the operations and maintenance once the LEED emblem is mounted at their entrance. It's nice to see there's a foreseen spike in green building. It's also great to see so many people going the way of LEED Operations + Maintenance and re-tooling existing buildings instead of building brand new commercial spaces.

Microsoft could benefit from a Bill Gates takeover. Steve Ballard doesn't get it.
