LEEDS Certification Should Take Into Consideration Earthquake Costs to Rebuild
More and more environmentally friendly green builders are joining the ranks of the socially responsible building industry. Great stuff, and why not build more energy efficient buildings, with materials that are made with the least pollution or impact to the environment? Sure, that all makes sense.

Sustainable Architecture
Hi I am promoting a Sustainable dwelling project called ALMA.

There is a real need for a complete view of the architectural product and its reciprocal influences with the environment and in flexible planning that enables changes during the life of the structure. The model constitutes a flexible basis of ideas that in addition to being linked to its environment knows how to combine and assimilate different systems to exploit Sustainable energies, storage and treatment of precipitation, etc. fully and extract the maximum from them. “Dwellings in Alma” means homes in the world and just an ordinary way of life, simple, economic and applicable. “Sustainable” building is not an architectural style, but a view of the world …

Green Building – Free LEED Certification Training and Preparation
The pillars of green building – sustainability, efficiency, community stewardship and health/safety – have long been familiar themes with developers, builders and consumers.

During the 1980s and 1990s, green building products and concepts moved inward from the fringe to become amenities and options that, everything else being equal, might help to close the deal…
