While recycling and carpooling helps, it is not enough. Classic home designs lend to a multitude of inefficiencies. Carbon Mitigation Management (CMM) is a new company led by Basalt local Richard Wodehouse, a pioneer in green building for over 20 years. CMM has been designed to serve a growing market of home owners and building operators who wish to lower their carbon footprint, but do not have the time or the resources to make necessary improvements. CMM works with professional consultants, quality subcontractors, and inhouse green experts to provide a complete service.
