I am in the process of updating my business plan for the green consulting work I do as their is a new surge in green building. I found Green Building Professional to be an amazing resource for people; process and perspective. This may not be a book you read from cover to cover in one sitting but a reference book to be used regularly when starting a new project or plan. Great stimulus for discussion and providing information for new professionals as well as those of us who have been doing this a while and need to get back on track; or just inspired. Well done.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Well-written; thoughtful and full of insight.By JTThe author has done well to describe the art of green building and the profession.
