Sustainable architecture is a form of architecture that seeks to mitigate the negative environmental impacts that constructions tend to have in the 21st century. It considers efficiency in the development space while also moderating the use of materials and energy – culminating in a sustainable ecosystem. Sustainable architecture is a conscious approach to energy and ecological consumption.
Sustainability at its core, is to ensure that our use of presently available resources does not end up having detrimental effects to our collective well-being or make it impossible to obtain resources for other applications in the long run.
LEED Rankings
The Leadership in Environmental and Energy Design, or LEED, certification has become the world’s most widely used and recognized green building rating system. Annually, international rankings of the Top 10 Countries for LEED turn attention to the upcoming struggles of climate change.
Rick Fedrizzi, CEO and founding chair, recognises that:
“International demand has grown steadily for tools supporting sustainable economic growth, and it has become increasingly clear that we are reaching a tipping point around environmental sustainability”.
