In Northbrook, Illinois, a closed landfill is now the site of a nine-hole golf course where golfers get to Think Green® every time they play on it. Over 500,000 tons of clean soil were imported from a nearby military base redevelopment project to shape and contour the surface of the landfill course.

The complex includes a top-notch driving range, practice putting and chipping area, as well as a full-service pro shop. The view is above par as well, offering golfers panoramic views of Chicago's North Shore.

The golf complex coexists with a methane gas-to-energy project - so it's not only a source of entertainment, it's also a source of clean, renewable energy.
