High Performance Buildings Webinar - Rising to the Challenge of Green Development Standards
On June 28th, as part of our High-Performance Buildings webinar series, our Sustainability Project Manager Mar Abera, and Building Performance Team Lead Chris Raghubar presented some common challenges and strategies surrounding designing to Green Development Standards.
Green Development Standards play a crucial role in Canada's commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship. Guided by initiatives such as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) and the Canada Green Building Council (CaGBC), the country has established rigorous regulations to ensure the implementation of sustainable practices in the construction industry. These standards encompass a wide range of factors, including energy efficiency, water conservation, waste management, and the use of renewable materials. By adhering to these standards, developers and architects are not only reducing their ecological footprint but also creating healthier and more sustainable communities.
