Greensburg, KS lives up to its name with new building requirements
Torn apart by a tornado and in the process of rebuilding, with the help of Leonardo DiCaprio and Discovery, Greensburg, Kansas will be the first city to require LEED Platinum building standards for anything larger than 4,000 square feet. Buildings will also be required to reduce energy use by 42%. This small town of 1500 may not be more than a speck on the map but in terms of green living they are pushing the bar and setting the example for other metropolitan mammoths. Talk about rebuilding with excellence -- these residents deserve a healthy and refreshed start.
