November 6th, 2009
Clovis, CA-Weather cooperates and the historic Buchanan project marches on. Watch now as “Green News” goes on site for a very momentous occasion. Our HD cameras witness Logix foam forms become solid walls. It’s a key element to the green construction taking place right now. Five cement trucks rolled in and out for the big event.
A New Age Wall Rises
October 28th, 2009Central CA-While the sun shines, the unique walls climb on the Buchanan High School campus in Central California. Our coverage of the historic Buchanan Energy Building continues…we have a report within the report. One of the project pioneers, our own Mark Alvis, talked to thousands about the “green” construction progress.
Special Green: Historic Building
October 21st, 2009Central CA-Watch it develop in our “Green News” Special Reports. The historic endeavor on one high school campus in Central California. A one-of-a-kind educational structure designed to grow trees, rather than use them for building. We’ll start with the smart walls of steel and concrete and, oh yes, foam. Let the Mayor of Alviston.com explain the Logix behind that.
Tour Green Construction
October 13th, 2009Thoroughly Green Reporting*
September 13th, 2009Clovis Unified School District-Take a look at the progress. Ground has broken and the wheels are in motion on the first energy-efficient building of its kind out west. Buchanan High School is home to the Energy Building Project.
It’s a green building design that is sure to get more and more attention as the structure takes shape. Search Alviston.com for more information on the historic “green” project. In the meantime, we’ll continue to follow the progress.

*No carbon emissions were created and no fossil fuel used in gathering this story. Green News was within bicycling distance of the project so peddle power was the mode of transportation and a battery-powered digital camera was used for the pictures. The manufacturing of the camera, bike, and battery are the only carbon swap in the equation-those figures are minimal.
Historic Decision Progresses
August 1st, 2009Central CA — It is one thing to talk about “green” building. It is entirely another matter to make it happen. Decades of building habits will not disappear overnight.
Even with some green hurdles, the prestigious Clovis Unified School District decided to go ahead with its “green” dream. The Buchanan High School campus will be home to an energy-efficient, thoroughly green building.
Not only will it be a “green” beacon for the rest of the modern construction community, it will be a living breathing case study for students. The Mayor of Alviston, Mark Alvis, who helped craft the concept, discussed the progress on local radio.
Listen to Alvis, who recently was on the Bill McEwen Show on KYNO AM 1300 in Fresno.
