America’s favorite pastime may have become its greenest pastime at the Minnesota Twins’ Target Field. The Minnesota Twins organization is ahead of the curve when it comes to green thinking, which makes everyone – the team, the fans and the city of Minneapolis – a winner. The Twins commitment to the environment paid off in a big way when Target Field was awarded LEED® Silver Certification in 2010. Target Field earned 36 certification points, officially making it the greenest ballpark in America.

The eco-friendly changes at this ballpark provide a blueprint for success that other organizations can study and adopt. This is especially true when you consider that the steps taken to implement their popular “Go Twins, Go Green” initiative were not difficult or hard to maintain. All it really took was a shared vision, careful planning and the commitment to place an environmental focus on the ballpark.

According to the Twins Sustainability Statement, “The Minnesota Twins organization believes our future success – both on and off the field – is built on a business model that embraces operational efficiency, environmental stewardship and social responsibility.” The fulfillment of that statement is integrated into every aspect of the ballpark, from construction to maintenance to transportation.

Much of the debate focuses on issues like global warming and environmental sustainability. But going green isn’t something that only benefits the Earth. There are very real benefits that you can enjoy as far as your health is concerned.

What you have in your home can impact your health. Many of the products and chemicals we use in the home are not only bad for the environment, but also harmful to our health.
