Item description from seller

Paperback. Green buildingsbuildings that use fewer resources to build and to sustainare commonly thought to be too expensive to attract builders and buyers. But are they? The answer to this question has enormous consequences, since residential and commercial buildings together account for nearly 50% of American energy consumptionincluding at least 75% of electricity usageaccording to recent government statistics.

It provides detailed findings on the costs and financial benefits of building green. According to the study, green buildings cost roughly 2% more to build than conventional buildingsfar less than previously assumedand provide a wide range of financial, health and social benefits. In addition, green buildings reduce energy use by an average of 33%, resulting in significant cost savings.Greening Our Built World also evaluates the cost effectiveness of green community development and presents the results of the first-ever survey of green buildings constructed by faith-based organizations.
