What is the “Green Development” Movement? It recognizes the impact building projects have on the environment and encourages the use of resources more efficiently through Design, Material Selection, Waste Reduction, Water Conservation and Reuse, and Energy Efficiency.
Since 2000, a total of 2,164 projects representing over 300,000,000 square feet of building space, have registered under the LEED system for certification
285 projects have achieved some level of LEED Certification under the LEED Program
20,900 building industry professionals have achieved LEED accreditation from the USGBC
I believe the Green Movement is here to stay and the design industry is just beginning to explore the many ways to create responsible interior environments.
