1. UPGRADE TO
LED LIGHTING
Upgrading to light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs, both
on the interior and exterior of community buildings,
has serious sustainable benefits. Today's LED bulbs
are more energy-efficient and use around 80% less
power than traditional fluorescent and incandescent
lights. These bulbs also last up to six times longer
than conventional bulbs, freeing up time and money
for your maintenance team. For even greater
savings long-term, think about switching to solar-
powered LED lights.
2. PRACTICE
SUSTAINABLE
CONSTRUCTION
Green building practices are no longer seen as an
alternative. If your community is remodeling or
constructing new buildings, consider implementing
practical and measurable green building design,
construction, operations, and maintenance
solutions. For example, opt for energy-efficient
appliances, solar-powered light fixtures, and
mechanical ventilation equipment.
