The Atlanta Falcons partnered with Change the Course to balance the entire annual water footprint of Mercedes-Benz Stadium and achieve a LEED credit in water innovation through the purchase of Water Restoration Certificates (WRCs).
“We set a goal of achieving the highest LEED rating because it was the right thing to do for our city and the environment and with this achievement, we have a powerful new platform to showcase to the industry and to our fans that building sustainably and responsibly is possible for a venue of any type, size and scale.”
-Arthur Blank
