The U.S. Green Building Council certified the world's first carbon-neutral building in October. "The greenest building ever built," according to the organization's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design ranking system, houses the Aldo Leopold Foundation. The 12,000 square foot structure produces 15% more energy than it consumes, thanks to its geothermal heating system and the 39.4 kilowatt photovoltaic solar ar- ray on its roof.
