Shifting the Paradigm to a Sustainable Economy by 2012

Green Paradigm Institute is the education arm of Green Paradigm Realty LLC, a real estate brokerage and advisory firm specializing in high performance homes and buildings, renewable energies, and sustainable development, advocating for people, planet, and profit in Southern New Jersey and the Delaware Valley.

Green Paradigm Institute is moving to a new location and bigger building!

We offer green building seminars throughout Southern New Jersey and at 170 N Broadway, Pennsville NJ, in a building for which we are pursuing LEED certification in Existing Buildings: Operations and Maintenance.

Green Paradigm Realty LLC is interested in partnering with renewable energy and sustainable community experts to form (1) Saint Joseph's Green Collar Career Center in Bridgeton NJ serving Atlantic, Gloucester and Salem Counties under the auspices of the Pascale-Sykes Foundation; (2) Green Paradigm Alliance to help the Township of Pennsville (Salem County) proceed with a Renewable Energy Redevelopment Project along Industrial Park Road; and (3) the City of Salem's Tilbury Landfill Solar project.  We believe a collaborative process with municipalities along the western corridor of Salem County such as Carneys Point, Pedricktown (Oldmans Township), Penns Grove, Pennsville, and Salem, their citizens, and all stakeholders will deliver and execute a comprehensive plan that optimizes people, planet, and profit, for the benefit of all Salem County and across the Delaware Valley watershed.  [more]
