Green Building

The BIA's Going Green!

Central Ohio Green Building Initiative (COGBI)

Green building is a buzzword, and a building practice, that is gaining momentum in our industry.

The BIA of Central Ohio supports "Green" construction practices, and we're growing our resources to help your business Go Green.

Visit http://www.thegbi.org/residential/featured-projects/centralohio/ for more information about the Central Ohio Program.

National Association of Home Builders' Definition of Green:
The process of green building incorporates environmental considerations into every phase of the home building process. That means that during the design, construction, and operation of a home, energy and water efficiency, lot development, resource efficient building design and materials, indoor environmental quality, homeowner maintenance, and the home's overall impact on the environment is all taken into account.
