    Last week USA Today released a fairly negative article discussing LEED and its connection to the building industry. Bob Berkebile who was one of the early founders of LEED, was quoted several times in the article, and responded today on BNIM’s website.

    We would love to know your thoughts. Do you think LEED is another “green” scam? Do you think that moving in the right direction is not a fast and perfect road? What do you think?
