Green Momentum

• 25 States and 48 Cities have adopted the LEED
  Program
• Former President Clinton at GreenBuild 2008 / the
  green movement would be the most powerful engine
  of economic growth for the US economy since the
  nations mobilization for World War II
• San Francisco is fast tracking the approval
  process for sustainable projects
• Green market growth is currently 7b and by 2010
  expected to be 10.2 to 20b
• 10,000 members in USGBC
• Regulations for greenhouse gas emissions are
  being put in place by states.
• All 50 States have LEED registered buildings
• Venture capitalists are turning their attention
  to alternative energy
• Developers are looking at Green Buildings to
  market their built environment
• Green Buildings have higher occupancy rates /
  3.8
• GreenBuild 2007/Chicago to hit 15,000 attendees
• Campus Sustainability Day 5 / October 24, 2007
• Benchmarking of K-12 facilities shows that
  student test scores increased by 20
• LEED Buildings have higher rent premiums and
  selling price / CoStar database
• Development of renewable energy systems are
  growing and reducing in cost
• Academic communities are seeking the best in
  young undergraduates

Benefits of Green Design

• Measurable reduction of waste
• Decreased water use
• Energy savings
• Reduced operating maintenance costs
• Improved indoor air quality
• Improvements in occupant health
• Increased employee morale, productivity,
  recruitment, retention, and improved public image
• Increased value

5
Creating Space that is Sustainable

• Orientation
• Windows Glass
• Insulation
• High Performance Wall Systems
• Green Reflective Roofs
• Recycled Materials
• Indoor Air Quality
• Material Selections / low VOCs
• Energy Star Performance
• Water Reduction Fixtures
• Wood Preservation
• Renewable Energy

6
Important Green Issues

• Reduce water consumption
• Natural daylighting
• High performance exterior envelope
• Good IAC
• Cutting edge lighting
• Modular construction
• Renewable Energy
• Incentives

7
Water Conservation

• Catchment area
• Collection Conveying System
• Cisterns or storage tanks
• Treatment System
• Delivery System

the average household uses 146,000 gallons of
water per year with up to 50 going towards
landscaping
8
Use Water Conserving Plumbing Fixtures

• Low-flow toilets,urinals, faucets, showerheads
• Water-conserving dishwashers, washing machines
• Waterless urinals and composting toilets
• Infrared sensors on toilets, urinals, sinks for
  self-closing valves
• Point-of-use water heaters
• Touchless controls

9

• Develop appropriate building siting and
  orientation for natural daylight harvesting
• Reduce site disturbance by integrating buildings
  along existing topography
• Use low flow fixtures to reduce water consumption
  
• Provide cool roofs to reduce heat islands and
  initiate rainwater recovery
• Solar hot water heating for pools
• Initiate a strong building envelope strategy
• Provide geothermal heating cooling for
  renewable energy
• Create water quality basins and retention pond
  for storm water run-off
• Use recycled materials for construction
• Provide cutting edge lighting and controls to
  reduce energy consumption
