Imagine the enormous environment and economic benefits if every building could do this. they can if they're designed for it. There is no single definition of what makes a building green and any analysis should consider the following:
- sustainable sites: Addresses the size, location, and other effects of the building on its environment
- water efficiency: Rewards the frugal use of water indoors and out
- energy and atmosphere: It covers the installation,verification, and monitoring of heating and cooling system, lighting, and other equipment as well as the use of renewable energy
- materials and resources: Outlines earth-friendly strategies for using local, renewable, and recycled materials, reducing waste and encouraging recycling
- indoor air quality: focuses on reducing indoor gases that can cause harm, and incorporating daylight and fresh air
