Green Building Certification System
A Green Building Certification System is a framework that evaluates how environmentally sustainable and energy-efficient a building is. It considers factors like eco-friendly materials, water and energy conservation, indoor air quality, and waste management. Buildings earn certification levels based on their performance, encouraging owners to adopt practices that reduce environmental impact, lower operating costs, and promote healthier living and working environments. These systems help ensure buildings contribute positively to community health and the planet while meeting regulatory standards and increasing market value. Examples include LEED, BREEAM, and WELL.
