Populus for the Planet

A new eco-friendly hotel in Denver, Colorado, is set to open its doors sometime next year. 

🌲 Quite a unique design... The Populus Hotel takes its inspiration from Colorado’s native aspen trees, with its architecture mimicking that of a tree trunk. 

• The hotel is the first in the nation with a goal to not only be carbon neutral, but carbon positive, meaning that it’s responsible for capturing more carbon than it produces.

💬 What they're saying: "We need to figure out how to build buildings that are responsible and that are giving back more than we’re taking,” said chief development officer Jon Buerge.
