What IS Green Building?
10
What IS Green Building?

• Design and construction practices that
  significantly reduce or eliminate the negative
  impact of buildings on the environment and
  occupants in five broad areas
• 5 LEED Categories
• Sustainable Sites
• Water Efficiency
• Energy Atmosphere
• Materials Resources
• Indoor Environmental Quality
• Innovation Design Process

11
Why Green Building? Benefits of Green
Building

• Environmental Benefits
• Reduce the impacts of natural resource
  consumption
• Economic Benefits
• Improve the bottom line
• Health and Safety Benefits
• Enhance occupant comfort and health
• Community Benefits
• Minimize strain on local infrastructure and
  improve quality of life

12
Economic Benefits

• Competitive first costs
• Reduced operating costs
• Increased building valuation
• Decreases vacancy, improves retention
• Marketing advantages
• Optimizes life-cycle economic performance
• Improve productivity
• Reduced absenteeism and turnover
• Providing a healthy workplace improves employee
  satisfaction
• Reduced liability
• Increased retail sales with daylighting

13
Why Should I Care?
14
U.S. buildings have a measurable, negative impact
on the environment

• There are over 76 million residential and 5
  million commercial buildings in the U.S.
• Collectively, these buildings consume
• 65 of electricity
• 37 of primary energy
• 25 of all water supplies
• 30 of all wood materials
• Collectively, these buildings generate
• 35 of solid waste
• 36 of CO2 and 46 of SO2 emissions
• 19 of NOx and 10 of fine particulate emissions

Sustainable buildings consume less resources,
generate less waste, cost less to operate, and
provide healthier living and working environments
than traditional buildings.
