Commercial Business Owners

The seven point challenge, started by the Building Owners and Managers Association, recognizes that energy consumption in commercial buildings accounts for 18 percent of US Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. The Community Energy Challenge is the first step towards a community-wide green house gas reduction. Responsible building operating and management practices can significantly reduce energy consumption, diminish a building’s carbon footprint, and thus lower GHG emissions.

Sign the pledge and take the Seven Point Challenge.
