LEED Green Building Rating System

The LEED Green Building Rating System is a certification program that assesses the environmental performance and sustainability of buildings. It evaluates factors like energy efficiency, water conservation, use of eco-friendly materials, indoor air quality, and overall design impact. Buildings earn points across these categories, and the total score determines their certification level—Certified, Silver, Gold, or Platinum. LEED encourages environmentally responsible construction and operation, helping reduce costs, improve occupant well-being, and lessen environmental footprint. It’s recognized worldwide as a standard for sustainable building practices.
