Sustainable design projects just wouldn’t be the same without EcoAmmo. This company offers Green Design Education, Research, LEED® Project Facilitation, and Conference Speaking. The best way to get into green building is through excitement and diverse ideas. Stephani, Brandy, and Andrea are a compelling trio of enthusiasm. I had the pleasure of being a Green Design student of Brandy’s. She inspired me to put my day to day eco living into my design practices. Since then, I have been adopted into the amazing world of Green Design and Raising Spaces.
To tell you the truth, I wouldn’t turn back. Within the home building community, the Eco Ammo girls have developed systems for educating builders in the community. They facilitate green building projects such as the NetZero projects of Edmonton and different LEED certified buildings such as, Allwest Commercial Furnishings Expansion & Renovation, Procura 10839 Jasper Avenue Expansion & Reconstruction, Strathcona County North Parks Maintenance Building, and the University of Alberta & Alberta Health Services building… just to name a few… Check out their Green Pros listing on our Green Building Professionals Directory.
On February 23rd, 2009, the Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, George Smitherman introduced Bill 150 – the Green Energy Act (GEA). The intent of the new bill is “to make Ontario a global leader in the development of renewable energy, clean distributed energy and conservation, creating thousands of jobs, economic prosperity, energy security, and climate protection”. Although the GEA is in its infant stages, it plans to achieve this goal by focusing on making renewable energy projects, mainly hydroelectric, wind, solar, and biomass more feasible and lucrative for a larger demographic of developers.
