Among the top 30 real estate markets in the country, Chicago now has the highest percentage of "certified LEED or Energy Star office buildings." So reports Bloomberg.
Fully two-thirds of the Windy City's office buildings carry the designation. Buildings are rated based on features like energy and water systems efficiency and solar lighting.
In April, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel promised to move all city-owned buildings to "100% renewable energy" by 2025. Further, the city cut carbon emissions 7% from 2010 to 2015, despite a 25,000 person population rise.
