Abstract
Often overlooked and facing ever-increasing budgetary pressure, exterior environments (i.e. Facility Grounds) are embraced in this introductory green course. Energy saving site opportunities from the building exterior and hardscape management to maintaining water-efficient landscaping to storm water run-off savings are addressed.
