- All stages and offices are insulated to reduce the amount of heating/cooling energy used.
- Appliances in wardrobe and craft/kitchen areas are water/energy efficient.
- Instantaneous hot water systems in kitchens and craft rooms
- General recycling
- Bioswale to remediate drainage water in front of the lot (water reused for irrigation)

Famous quotes containing the words green and/or initiatives:
“You know, if this is Venus, or some other strange planet, we’re liable to run into some high-domed characters with green blood in their veins who’ll blast at us with their atomic death rayguns, and there we’ll be with these—these poor old-fashioned shootin’ irons.”
—Edward L. Bernds (b. 1911)
“It is well known, that the best productions of the best human intellects, are generally regarded by those intellects as mere immature freshman exercises, wholly worthless in themselves, except as initiatives for entering the great University of God after death.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
