USGBC (United States Green Building Council)

The United States Green Building Council (USGBC) is a nonprofit organization focused on promoting sustainable building practices. It advocates for environmentally friendly construction and design through the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification program. LEED provides a framework for creating healthy, efficient, and sustainable buildings. By establishing building standards that reduce environmental impact, improve energy efficiency, and enhance occupant health, the USGBC aims to transform the way buildings are designed, constructed, and operated. Their initiatives help address climate change, resource depletion, and human health concerns in the built environment.
