Join us on May 14 starting at 3:30 pm and going till 6:30 pm for an engaging panel featuring Ward Young Architects and Sierra Sustainable Builders, who designed, sourced, and are working towards constructing Tahoe’s first LEED-certified office building, now the new home of Keep Tahoe Blue. 

Discover human and environmentally centered philosophy that brought the Spurlock/Evers Environment & Education Center to life, and how others, including homeowners, can apply Keep Tahoe Blue’s sustainability building to future projects. Attendees can also learn about materials that are beautiful, sustainable, robust, and can easily be incorporated into projects, including: 

• Recycled denim insulation, to repurpose fabric waste and enhance energy efficiency 

• A living roof, designed to capture carbon and reduce heat islands 

• Salvaged wood from the 2021 Caldor Fire, thoughtfully integrated into structural and design elements 

This building reflects Keep Tahoe Blue’s legacy of turning science into real‑world solutions. Designed for community, it brings together learning, gathering, and dialogue—and we’re excited to share it with our neighbors.
