UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh Achieves LEED® Silver
UPMC states on their website:
The new Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC is designed as a “green” campus, meaning that buildings use key resources such as energy, water, materials, and land more efficiently than buildings erected simply to building code. It’s been established that green (or environmentally sustainable) buildings contribute to improved health, comfort, and productivity of their residents by utilizing more natural light and promoting better air quality.
UPMC is taking it further by committing to employ green practices that extend beyond the structure. Children’s has employed new operating policies and procedures regarding facility maintenance, housekeeping, food service and waste management. They also have a commitment to fostering a green philosophy by working with clinicians, academicians, and the community to conduct research on the subject of sustainability and its health effects on children.
