Celebrate Earth Hour at ReSource Boulder

earth hour logoReSource Boulder will be hosting a local celebration in recognition of the global effort of Earth Hour, on Saturday, March 28 from 6:30pm-9:30pm at the program facility, 2665 63rd Street.  Please join us in celebrating this event with great folks, local beer, and local music.

Earth Hour is an international effort to turn off lights to recognize the need for our communities to actively pursue solutions to climate change.  Every hour is a virtual Earth Hour at ReSource Boulder, as we only have two buildings with electricity and offset our demand with Photo Voltaic solar panels.

 

Best Practices-Building Materials Reuse Industry Study

The Center for Resource Conservation worked with consulting firm, Point380, to conduct a national Best Practices—Building Materials Reuse Industry study spotlighting exemplary operations within the growing construction and demolition (C&D) waste diversion industry.  In addition to integrating the best practices findings into the ReSource program operations, this study is intended to guide other reclaimed building material organizations in the country, and provide a framework for facility and industry improvement for all interested. Publicly available Best Practice documents have, in some cases, seen rapid acceptance, quick adoption and resulted in profound business advancements in other industries.  CRC feels that material reuse best practices are as unique as each facility, but that all in the industry stand to gain from the lessons and experiences of other operators of these businesses.

Additionally, a Best Practices Wiki for the Reclaimed Building Material Industry has been created to encourage public collaboration and continued information sharing on this topic.  We welcome your continued additions, edits and review on this interactive website.  Check back regularly for updates from ReSource and our other constituents in the building material reuse industry.
