through the burning of fossil fuels and the manufacturing of cement
LEED
~~> Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
The USGBC LEED green building program is the preeminent program for the
design, construction, maintenance, and operation of high-performance
green buildings | Third-party green building certification program and the
globally recognized standard for the design, construction and operation of
high-performance green buildings and neighborhoods.
Lean Process Improvement

LEED Green Associate
~~> The basic level of LEED credentials that requires a documented, up-to-
date understanding of the most current green building principles and
practices
Sulfur Dioxide (SO2)
~~> A highly reactive gas that is primarily produced through the
combustion of fossil fuels at power generation plants and other processes at
manufacturing facilities
Triple Bottom Line
~~> An accounting framework that incorporates the social,
environmental, and economic dimensions of an organization

, 4 | P a g e | © copyright 2024/2025 | Grade A+
~~> Harmful organic chemical compounds that are emitted from certain
solids or liquids that evaporate under normal indoor atmospheric conditions
for temperature and pressure and may have short-term and long-term
adverse health effects and can be released by synthetic materials such as
flooring, wall-coverings, furniture and paints, adhesives and sealants
Xeriscaping
~~> Landscaping designed to reduce or eliminate potable water use in
irrigation through the planting of native and adapted species of vegetation
and the use of other water-conserving techniques
Zero Net Energy
~~> A level of efficiency for a high-performance building that produces all
the energy it uses and is so energy efficient, a renewable energy system can
offset all or most of its annual energy consumption
Plant Drought-Resistant Landscaping
~~> An architect wishes to maximize water efficiency in a high-profile,
mixed-use development located in a drought area
What would be the most effective way to achieve this?
