Energy Awareness
GSA has made great strides over the years reducing energy consumption in buildings and complying with related executive orders and mandates. Attainment of these goals coincides with GSA's efforts to perform in the most businesslike manner possible. The bottom line is that reducing energy consumption in buildings is just good business.
