A Holistic Approach to Green Building: Finding Sustainability in the Built Environment

The building industry has undergone tremendous transformation over the last eight years, due in part to certification systems such as LEED and BuiltGreen, which are generating greater awareness among building professionals as well as consumers about the environmental and health concerns surrounding what we build with and how we do it. But have the new initiatives really provided the dramatic improvements that are needed, and are they keeping up with new research and technology?

Shayne will explore the need to go one step further. Shayne will examine building from a more holistic perspective,  with special emphasis on the Living Building Challenge.
