We serve as enthusiastic partners with our clients and their design team to realize sustainability goals on every project we undertake. We focus on energy conservation, the responsible use of materials, managing construction waste and recycling, and reducing water consumption, resulting in truly sustainable projects. We help our customers create healthy work environments that attract and retain employees. We also consider the overall carbon footprint of our company and its annual operations. We have endeavored to balance our carbon emissions by planting and sponsoring a new sustainable forest located in the El Zota biological field station in northeastern Costa Rica (10o 33,437’44,177-83rd). Torcon has established a partnership with Reforest the Tropics, a research-based nonprofit organization working to help mitigate global climate change. RTT balances carbon emissions by partnering with family farms in Costa Rica to convert their deforested pastures into carefully managed, high yielding, carbon-offset forests. The group’s mission is to make a tangible contribution to global sustainability through environmental education and applied research on carbon-offset farm forests in the tropics. RTT plants appropriate species on the land and manages the forest stand (measures and audits growth and trains the landowner). Torcon’s 25-year sponsorship demonstrates our commitment to environmental sustainability that goes beyond recycling and reducing paper. We are proud to contribute to this exciting climate change mitigation effort. “We believe in a market-based approach to address the issue of climate change. By making the project financially competitive with alternative land use activities AND by designing the forest to be regenerative, the likelihood that the forest will be standing in 100 years is far more favorable than other reforestation models.” LEED SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGS Torcon is committed to helping each client meet its sustainability goals.
