The Green Initiative is chiefly about striving to protect the biodiversity of our ecosystems, reduce carbon dioxide emissions with reforestation, offset greenhouse gases, among many other environmental objectives. With these goals in mind, our company is not only proud to be partnered with The Green Point Project, but also LEED certified.
The Green Point Project, www.thegreenpointproject.org, located at the mouth of Cowichan Bay on Vancouver Island, is another exciting construction partnership we’re proud to be associated with. Kenneth Chooi, Co-Founder of the project and Principal of DSK Architecture, is the lead architect of this sustainable development and has also been in partnership with Longhouse.
What is The Green Point Project? The project is a rebuild of an historical original building and encompasses salvaging original home materials (such as wood reclamation) to Passive House (PH) and Living Building Challenge (LBC) certifications. The challenges of accomplishing this task are great but there are numerous determined individuals involved in bringing it to fruition.
The other green initiatives we’re proud to be members and supporters of encompass the Canada Green Building Council, Greater Vancouver Home Builder’s Association, Victoria Residential Builder’s Association, and South Island Woodlot Association. In addition, we can stand tall behind all of our products that are available Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified.
Longhouse Specialty Forest Products shouts loud and proud about our green initiative. We are not here for the short term, but with a passionate view of a bright future for our children, grandchildren, and so on. We’re dedicated to managing our forests on the naturally stunning West Coast for you and your future generations too.
