e group, the original green environmental design company

e group has recently made great strides to drastically reduce our physical office space and become a more virtual effort focused on green economy service. We've begun to diminish our carbon foot print by reducing commuting, office scale, and associated utilities etc. Improvements include a leaner, meaner attitude when it comes to producing paper, reducing weekly commutes for some employees from 300 miles to 40 and using technology to reduce our overall carbon emissions. We are excited to lead the change in green planning, sustainable development, green infrastructure, and carbon netrual communities.
