The latest two “LEED” awards, for “Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design — Existing Building,” were presented December 4, 2006, for Adobe’s East and Almaden towers, adding to the July 2006 win for its West tower. That makes Adobe the only company in the world that has received a triple crown of commendations, says Rick Fedrizzi, founder, president, and CEO of the Washington-D.C.-based non-profit.
The council includes 7,200 member organizations, and 80 regional chapters. Its “core purpose is to transform the way buildings and communities are designed, built and operated, enabling an environmentally and socially responsible, healthy, and prosperous environment that improves the quality of life.” So far, 16 law firms (or individual lawyers) are members, including the most recent signatory, Womble Carlyle, which joined in December 2006.
