What is stewardship?
People have been entrusted with and are responsible to care for the earth and the things they’ve been given - money, time, talents, and resources. At AMDG, green design refers to design and construction practices that promote stewardship of resources, energy, materials, and the environment. This approach to design prioritizes human comfort and health, encourages a connection with God’s creation, and displays an active commitment to an investment in the future.
Why go green?
It's a wise investment in the future. It creates a better environment to live and work in. It's our social responsibility.
