Green building initiatives are rapidly catching on across the country. This doesn't only affect construction companies, developers, and related individuals; Green building is being implemented in residential housing, affecting each and every one of us. In addition, commercial building codes are now requiring specific Green initiatives. Everyone can have an affect on the Green movement; from installing solar panels on your home, to heating it with geothermal heat, each and every improvement lowers our dependence on energy and oil.

The Working Green Committee was established in January of 2008 by the Dutchess County Regional Chamber of Commerce. The mission of the committee is to raise the awareness of and to engage the action of business owners to adopt practices that can improve the environment, the workplace, and often the bottom line.
On January 29, 2009 the Dutchess County Regional Chamber of Commerce invited us to present on tax incentives of going green, and how going green can put green in your pocket, as well as what Uncle Sam will do for you. Over 40 members of the Dutchess County Regional Chamber of Commerce attended this presentation.
If you or your organization is investing in reducing its environmental footprint and you would like to get some green for your efforts, then call us today and ask to speak to one of our tax professionals. We will be happy to tell you how the 2008 Energy Act extends and enhances existing energy credits and how much you could get back for going green.
