Southface Energy Institute

Since 1978, Southface has worked with consumers, the construction and development industry and policymakers to forge market-based solutions for creating green jobs, clean energy solutions and sustainable communities. Recognizing that buildings produce nearly half of all U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, we believe that sustainability initiatives and advocacy focused on the built environment are key to addressing global climate change. Southface is also strongly committed to helping people live, work and play in comfortable, healthy buildings that save money by conserving energy, water and other natural resources. To accomplish these goals, Southface offers a wide variety of green building and sustainability programs and services, all of which are based on sound science.
