The primary mission of the Rhode Island Green Building Council is to transform the way buildings are designed, built and operated in the state of Rhode Island in order to promote environmentally and socially responsible, healthy, aesthetically pleasing and durable communities that protect the state’s cultural heritage and natural environment and improve the quality of life.

 

 

Specifically, the Chapter will:
 
    Promote green design and construction, including renovation and operation of new and existing buildings, especially in the urban core and historic neighborhoods. 
  •  Promote compact development that optimizes use of existing infrastructure and minimizes dependence on automobiles.
     
  • Promote historic preservation and neighborhood-based planning and design.
    Provide outreach, education and economic development opportunity for members.

    Train the current and future workforce for jobs in the new green economy, including workers in economically disadvantaged neighborhoods.
