I went to fill up yesterday at this gas station in West Hollywood on the corner of Olympic and Robertson and was amazed what i saw.

This place has the following:

• The facade was made from farm-raised renewable cedar
• The wall behind the station is wrapped with vines (require almost no upkeep)
• All the lights are motion sensitive
• The bathroom is all made from recycled aluminum and recycled glass
• The ouside structure is highly durable uncoated stainless steel and is completely recycleable
• 90 solar panels are on the canopy which produce enough energy to power 2-3 average American homes
• Glass is mixed into the concrete which removes the need for sand
• The canopy collects rainwater which is then filtered and reused onsite for irrigation and landscaping

All in all it’s pretty impressive for just a standard gas station.  You can read more about what BP is doing at thegreencurve.com
