KION 46 Coverage of the Ausonio LEED Registered Building



PJ Javaheri of KION TV was looking for a story on green. At the time, Jeannie, Derek and I were knee-deep in a waste stream audit for our building. We had been collecting the waste generated in our building for the past week, and the morning PJ called we were busy going through bags of garbage to see how we could improve our recycling. We were in the process of determining that composting might be a viable option for our building. Alyson at the front desk explained to PJ that we were tied up, but he must have smelled a story. Not much later, he showed up to our building. We told him about some of the features of our LEED Existing Building project that we were working on for the Ausonio Building. For some reason, these features were more interesting to him than our waste stream audit. Derek and I left the garbage bags and our gloves, and before we knew it, we were on the roof with PJ! I have attached much of the segment that aired. The tape that I used was eaten by a rogue VCR at our office, so not all of the segment was captured, and it is a little rough at the beginning.
