What exactly is a green building? What does it mean for a building to be green certified? How do building occupants and members of a community experience green and sustainable features? In this episode, host Alina Michelewicz and co-host Michelle Moran find the answers to these questions and more with two leaders of Green Building Services at New Ecology, L.J. Eldredge and Joshua Galloway. Tune in for a comprehensive discussion on the state of green building and how it fits into the modern affordable housing market.
