Stakeholder Engagement is Key to LEED-EB

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design for Existing Buildings (LEED-EB), huh? There are plenty of classes out there. All taught by LEED faculty. And they will give you a great overview of the five categories, 85 points (for EB 2.0; 91 points for LEED EB: Operations and Maintenance) and credit requirements. How do you get water credits? Reduce consumption compared to the baseline by 20 or 30 percent. How about the materials credits? Simple, just start using recycled janitorial products and increase the amount of materials your building’s occupants are recycling.
