To compile the list, we mailed ballots to a sampling of attorneys who are members of the State Bar of Georgia and whose practice areas correspond to those we are featuring. We also put a ballot on our web- site, georgiatrend.com, which could be downloaded and sent to us or submitted online. Any attorney who is a member of the state bar and lives and practices in Georgia was eligible to vote and to be voted onto the list. Respondents were not allowed to vote for themselves; they could vote for other members of their firms if they voted for an equal or greater number of attorneys outside their firms. The names of the top vote recipients appear, in alphabetical order, in the following pages. They appear in the categories into which their peers voted them, although some may practice in more than one area. The listing is determined solely by lawyers’ votes; places on the list are not for sale, nor are they tied to paid advertising. Ballots were tallied and names verified by the Georgia Trend editorial staff. www.georgiatrend.com I DECEMBER 2011 I 39 039_GT_Dec_LegalElite_GT.April 11/17/11 3:36 PM Page 40 BUSINESS LAW David Brown 600 Peachtree St.

  • Impact for a Sustainable Future Annual Report 2016 Atlanta Better Buildings Challenge Introduction | 03
    IMPACT FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE ANNUAL REPORT 2016 ATLANTA BETTER BUILDINGS CHALLENGE INTRODUCTION | 03 One of my proudest accomplishments as Mayor of Atlanta is the tremendous success achieved through the Atlanta Better Buildings Challenge (ABBC). The Office of Resilience has partnered with businesses and nonprofit organizations to implement a comprehensive, voluntary program to increase energy and water efficiency in our building stock. The Atlanta Better Buildings Challenge invites participating building owners to commit to a 20 percent reduction in energy and water use by year 2020. With more than 114 million square feet of building space and more than 600 buildings pledged, Atlanta has earned its spot as a leader on the efficiency scoreboard. Since 2011, this successful public-private partnership between the City of Atlanta, Central Atlanta Progress, Livable Buckhead, Midtown Alliance and Southface has positioned Atlanta as a national leader in energy and water efficiency. We surpassed our water reduction goal five years ahead of schedule, and we’re quickly closing the gap on our energy goal, having already reduced our portfolio’s energy consumption by 17 percent. Through the Atlanta Better Buildings Challenge, participants are saving money on bills now, while helping to ensure a more resilient future for all Atlantans. This program plays a pivotal role in furthering Atlanta as a top-tier city for sustainability. We hope to inspire other cities by our achievements and lead by example as we continue to make big strides in reducing our energy and water usage. Thanks to our participants in the Challenge. Sincerely, IMPROVING THE EFFICIENCY OF OUR BUILDINGS 20 PERCENT BY 2020 Mayor Kasim Reed The goal of the Department of Energy’s Better Buildings Resource conservation efforts not only support the City’s Challenge is to improve the efficiency of commercial, sustainability efforts and lead to a cleaner and healthier institutional, industrial, and multifamily buildings by 20% or place to live and work, but the dollar savings achieved more by 2020.
