Wisconsin State Journal, 10.18.07
BARABOO, Wis. (AP) -- The foundation named for famed ecologist Aldo Leopold received an honor Thursday that would have made the conservationist proud: the U.S. Green Building Council named the group's new home the greenest building it has ever rated.
The nonprofit council encourages sustainable construction and building design, certifying green building projects and ranking them on a point system for energy efficiency and sustainability.
