Almost 2000 of the nation’s most energy efficient buildings have earned EPA’s ENERGY STAR, saving an estimated $200 million annually and reducing approximately six billion pounds of greenhouse gas emissions, equivalent to the emissions of 500,000 cars. The buildings qualifying as ENERGY STAR use about 40 percent less energy without compromising comfort or services. Several telecommunications companies made the list, including BellSouth, QWEST, and Verizon. More than 50 percent of the buildings joining the program were supermarkets or grocery stores. More information and a complete list of buildings, by state, is available here: List of buildings |
