Solar Innovation- Asheville -One of the first major hotels in the United States to include a solar water heating system atop its roof,  the  Hilton Asheville will offers water that, throughout the hotel, including the pool, will be solar heated,  will eliminate 25 tons of carbon dioxide per year, the equivalent of planting 7,377 trees. The solar water heating system is just one of the hotel's many environmentally focused features. More Sustainability Features and Photos. 

Sustainabillity- Asheville-: Here is the inspiring story of the saving of one of Asheville's architectural landmarks, Helen's Bridge.  "The saving of Helen's Bridge now gives us all the opportunity to walk under the "great arched bridge" and shout up to the bridge and listen for our echo, just as Thomas Wolfe did as a young boy in the early 1900's."    

 Wellness-Asheville: Addressing the  challenges of childhood obesity, healthy aging and workplace wellness UNC Asheville is poised to address these challenges through the N.C. Center for Health and Wellness at UNC Asheville.
