Green Star Projects | Building a Sustainable Future Achieving a Green Star 5-star rating is a significant milestone for construction projects, and we are proud of the strides we're making with our clients towards this goal. At the heart of our efforts is our vision of doing no harm to the communities we build in. We recently sat down with Tayla Fairthorne, our ESG Manager, to discuss some of the challenges in achieving a Green Star rating and how we're working to overcome them. One key strategy has been the implementation of a central tracking system for Green Star requirements, helping our teams monitor the credits they are working towards. Tayla has also initiated Green Star Working Groups, bringing together team members to foster open discussions and share lessons learned across different projects. This collaborative approach ensures that we continue to innovate and improve our practices.
