1st U.S. Hotel Captures More Carbon than It Uses

What is happening? Meet Urban Villages, the company that is building, Populous, the first U.S. carbon-positive hotel in Denver, CO.

Why is this important? The builders are using low carbon concrete and investing in reforesting more than 5,000 acres of land to offset the 4,397 metric tons of CO2 the construction will produce.The hotel also eschews parking lots.

How will this be important? Sustainable building that reduce carbon are no longer just for Milan’s living buildings but are being seen as a way to address climate change.
