USGBC announces Green Apple commitment at Clinton Global Initiative

Green Apple, an initiative of the Center for Green Schools at the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) was announced recently at the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) Annual Meeting held in New York. Green Apple is a global movement to put all children in schools where they have clean and healthy air to breathe, where energy and resources are conserved and where they can be inspired to dream of a brighter future.

Green Apple will celebrate its official launch with the first-ever Green Apple Day of Service this Saturday, Sept. 29, 2012. The Day of Service brings together advocates from around the world, including students, teachers, parents, elected officials, organizations, companies and more, to take action in their communities through service projects at local schools, and presents an opportunity for substantial change to be made in support of healthy, sustainable schools.
