And when they go out of their way to make efforts to do something useful for the environment, it is encouraging. The Hannaford Supermarket, which first opened in 1883, has become the first supermarket in the US to be Platinum LEED certified owing to reasons including using solar array on their rooftop to use about half of the energy of a normal supermarket. It seems even the history of the building shows that it was an old school that was renovated and about 99% of the construction debris and garbage was recycled. On the rooftop, they incorporated a green roof. Water usage was reduced by 38% by installing waterless urinals, and ice-free display cases in the seafood department.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nTo save some energy they also added doors on all fridge and freezer displays that save about 1\/3 of the energy as compared with containers without doors. Hannaford also uses low-VOC paint throughout the store alongside its fresh air exchange and clean ventilation system. These are measures the supermarket has taken and by all means are the reasons why it was awarded this accolade. Congratulations.<br \/>\n[<a href=\"http:\/\/www.treehugger.com\/files\/2009\/07\/first-platinum-leed-grocery-store-opens-in-maine.php\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow external noopener noreferrer\">Treehugger<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supermarkets are probably the biggest crowd pullers in present day than any other store or organization.
