You might find material for an interesting post by listing all of the LEED certified buildings in Spartanburg. You can probably find a partial list by checking the website of the USGBC (US Green Building Council). I also know that Wofford is finishing one at Glendale, and I believe the Converse renovation currently underway is a green renovation. Other efforts are also bubbling up. So, thanks again. This is an important issue, and I'm glad you're putting it in front of us. Tammy, thanks for taking this on.

It'll be really great to have someone covering the environmental/sustainability front, and I can't think of a better person for it than you Tammy. I'm really looking forward to reading your columns and educating myself about a local issue that I'm not nearly as familiar with as I should be. Welcome on board! Wonderful!

I look forward to reading future columns. I am the green freak at my house although what I am able to do is still on the small scale. I look forward to learning how better to leave an environmental legacy for my grandchildren. I vividly remember buying meat, milk and eggs from local farmers when I was a kid. I'd sure like to give it a go as an adult. Write away girl. You've already got one anxious reader awaiting. Go Tammy! I look forward to reading future columns.

I think a lot of people don;t realize these areas exist! We took a ride down to the Glendale Preserve a few weeks ago and it was really a nice preserve.
