The Living Home – Lethbridge College leads green home initiative
Melanie Fast
Lethbridge College took another step in distinguishing itself as a leader in sustainability last Wednesday when it launched its “Living Home” project at the Residence Hall.
The college, partnered with the City of Lethbridge and Cedar Ridge Quality Homes, will build a “green” home in the Sun Ridge residential district.
“With this Living Home project, Lethbridge College has the opportunity to be one of Canada’s first green colleges,” said Mayor Bob Tarleck at the project launch.
The launch also unveiled the project’s logo, designed by second-year multimedia production student Jeremy Rickaby.
