  • Named in honor of Eileen Brendle Dorsey, Judy's mother, and in whose honor a donation is made each year to the American Cancer Society.
  • Over 500 volunteer hours (valued at $45,000) on sustainability causes ranging from serving on non-profit boards to conducting free energy assessments.
  • First known Climate Neutral Company status in Colorado and recognized by the State of Colorado in 2005 for this milestone (Environmental Award).
  • Over 100 projects ranging from management consulting and design assistance to building assessments and education and outreach.
  • More than 235 building assessments totaling 9,359,759 square feet (imagine assessing the Pentagon 1.5 times or the Sears Tower 2.5 times - wow!).
  • Savings for clients in excess of $1,076,770 per year through efficiency measures alone.
  • Greenhouse gas emissions recommendations for customers equal to planting more than 195,440 trees or taking 450 cars off the road...permanently.
  • Surprising diversity - ask our clients who come from school districts, universities, municipalities, utilities, ski areas, breweries, national parks...
  • Six Colorado State University interns complementing their education with real-life work experience (taking the shock out of graduating and making them REALLY marketable).
  • Parallel paths (while not acquainted until 2000, Judy and Julie grew up just an hour from each other on either side of the Mississippi River near St. Louis, Missouri).
