/24-7PressRelease/ - PLEASANTON, CA, August 08, 2008 - "Go Green" seems to be all the rage lately in our society, perhaps because we are rapidly realizing that the extent of our wastefulness is finally catching up to us, but most of us don't really know what "Going Green" means. Of course, we understand the general concepts of saving energy, being planet friendly and so on, but applying it to our existence is much more than just Energy Star Ratings on a washing machine, or a car that uses alternative fuel, it is a daily way of life. The goal is to apply "Green" standards as a lifestyle or way of thinking, until "Going Green" is synonymous to brushing our teeth, or taking the trash out.
A project that is one of the leaders in this concept is the development of CastleView Estates-Green Acres near Pleasanton, California; a community of homes which are built and stand as a nod to the environment. This unique project does more than just use the term "Green" in their name, they breathe by it. For them it is not simply an item like a washer or dryer, nor is it just a way of recycling or a building strategy; it is an embedded standard of thought which permeates throughout the entire project. CastleView has been awarded recognition from the California State Senate, as well as a Proclamation by Alameda County. This Proclamation, which is viewable on their website, outlines what it means to think Green.
From start to finish, CastleView Estates provides an alternative to contemporary home building and living; it offers the innovative techniques of the future. Smart use of land to ensure the most positive environmental impact possible, energy star ratings, LEED ratings, efficiently built homes designed to save energy, wind power, a self-sufficient water and sewer system which recycles waste for irrigation of crops and animals, 100% recycled building waste, and so much more encompass a project which strives to break free from the norm and pull ahead of the race to be Green in as many areas as possible.
The newer generations are learning how to take advantage of Green alternatives in order to provide their children with a better future, while the older generations are guiding them into this new standard of thought. With all the hype about Going Green, and everyone wanting to jump on the bandwagon, we find that CastleView Estates-Green Acres is a unique project which uses Green standards throughout the entire existence of the community, proving its 100% dedication to taking care of the environment both presently and for the future.
