Hello,
I would like to know if I may have permission to use the “Green Glode” in a logo design? Please reply back to:

My client may not want to use it but I would like to know if it is available for use BEFORE I use it in a design.
Thank You,

You do express your point pretty well, as do a lot of blogers on: DJC Green Building Blog » Blog Archive » LEED vs. Green Globes - watch our state duke it out, but I wish you could add a little more references on heating and refrigeration as I find some of your points a little “unconventional” and would appreciate to know of documented similar opinions.

Competition for LEED in their certification process is an excellent idea. LEED has a tendency to be complicated and costly to document; the all-out war between the two organizations may result in streamlining the process and reworking several credits (IE: EAc4, Enhanced Refrigeration Management, which generally results in oversizing refrigeration equipment… can we say: intent?). Competition also worries me.

Competition might lead to the relaxation of requirements needed for certification. A supplier could in essence support the standard that allows for less eco-friendly materials, allowing the lesser standard to gain headway over the greater. In a world plagued with environmental problems and issues, this is an outcome that we, as inhabitants of this world, can not accept any further.

The competition would need to be monitored, I believe, to keep this from happening. The competition should push to make both methods more streamline, continue to expand responsible decision making in construction and design practices, and provide greater support for our environment.

Cascadia may or may not have had a significant effect on getting SB 5384 stalled in committee. But is is evident by their tactivcs that the truth has very little to do with their desperate attempt to remain top dog inthe Green ratings division.

The falsehoods put forth in the mass emailing to Cascadia members is reprehensible and should be beneath any organization that advertises itself as being good stewards for the earth and its inahabitants.

LEED is overly complicated, ovelry expensive, and politically driven in such a way that soon this argument will be moot. A revolt is coming. A true sustainable revolt that will LEED an old irrelevant relic of the past.
