We are very proud to announce that UUFD has been designated a Bronze Certified Green Business by 4CORE, the Four Corners Office for Resource Efficiency.
For several years, our Environmental Justice Team (EJT) has been committed to enhancing our sustainability efforts. Even before formal engagement, we installed electric vehicle chargers and solar panels. After working with 4CORE on an energy audit of their three buildings, we implemented climate-conscious upgrades, including LED lighting, faucet aerators, and efficient irrigation systems. We also added bike racks to encourage alternative transportation and reduce traffic noise.
The EJT continues to lead efforts for sustainability, such as requiring ENERGY STAR-rated appliances, offering plant-based meal options, and ensuring any new construction is environmentally sensitive. They also educate congregants on reducing their carbon footprints and encourage remote work for staff.
