Sure, the brick buildings of Longwood University's
campus are beautiful. But did you know that Longwood
University is home to several buildings that use Green
Building technologies. Green buildings can play a
significant role in working towards Longwood
University's goal of a sustainable campus.

What is a "Green" Building?

A Green Building is defined as a building that is
environmentally friendly. Green Buildings are planned,
designed, and constructed with the intention of
reducing negative environmental impacts while
retaining building quality. Either through use of
renewable energy sources, promotion of tree growth
or extra efforts towards recycling, these buildings are
doing their part in making our campus, and the planet,
a little bit cleaner.
