As a regional advocate for sustainable design and construction, we facilitate collaboration as a unified voice for the tri-county Central California Coast region, to preserve and improve the unique quality of life, where every new or renovated building enhances the health and well-being of our built and natural environments. The Central Coast Green Building Council is continuing the transformation of the Central Coast into a sustainable community, economy, and environment through education and advocacy of green building design, construction, and operational excellence. Values: - We value enhancement of the built environment through comprehensive and efficient design solutions. - We seek to create a more equitable distribution of the triple bottom line (social, economic, and environmental). - We believe in protection and stewardship of the natural environment, acknowledging its relationship with the built environment. - We aim to create a collaborative, regional network of building professionals and trade groups who are committed to green design practices. - We inspire action and advocacy of green building solutions by the public at the local and regional level through education and outreach. - We support becoming a model community for cutting-edge, regenerative design solutions. - We celebrate innovations and successes of organizations and businesses implementing green building designs and programs. - We pursue mutual collaboration with other organizations and businesses committed to our common values.
