Basketball is going green, at least in Miami, where the Heat will be playing in the country's first LEED-certified stadium. Leed stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, and the American Airlines Arena in Miami is the first stadium in the country to get that award. Some of the "green" features include water-efficient landscaping, walk-off carpets, green roofing materials and underground parking. Miami isn't stopping there, with their plans for the new Marlins MLB stadium they will be the first city with two "green" stadiums.
