In a dynamic world where sustainability and environmental responsibility reign supreme, the spotlight often falls on innovative solutions that drive positive change. We are thrilled to share that BuildingGreen, a recognized authority in the realm of sustainable...
All governments, infrastructure planners, designers and decision makers need to adopt a triple bottom line cost benefit analysis approach for building and infrastructure decisions to ensure that users, the environment and all stakeholders are best served by a post-pandemic stimulus package.
As we re-build the economy, we need to make sure that what we build reflects our values and that “public values help shape private value”. We need Triple Bottom Line Costs Benefit Analysis (TBL-CBA) to measure value and set priorities.
It has been noted that despite the pandemic, the natural world doesn’t care and perhaps even doing better since the economy has been shuttered. As we re-build we need to remember that the economy serves us, economic growth is not an end in and of itself.

My call to arms is that architects, engineers and other sustainability professionals need to gird themselves with the weapons of training and tools to run the numbers to avoid previous stimulus program mis-steps. Only then will we be able to make rational and informed decisions for the public good.

Since the first method for evaluating building sustainability, in 1975, till today, more than six hundred methods have been developed. Now we are converging on one standard.
It’s Climate Week and buildings are among the “culprits” associated with the production of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
We’re proud to announce the launch of our new and improved Autocase for Buildings. Autocase for Buildings helps architects win trust and new clients by speaking their clients’ language. Tell clients the story of your smart building design in the language of dollars and cents, by putting a dollar value on the financial, social and environmental aspects of your design.
Sustainable building design gives landlords a double benefit - LEED and Energy Star certification increases occupancy as well as the rental rate vs non-certified buildings. Autocase for Sustainable Buildings (coming in beta at Greenbuild in October) has used...
