Article: A green building rating system

The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) recently posted the latest draft of its green building rating system on its Website (http://www.usgbc.org/). It was developed by USGBC members who volunteered to participate on the rating system committee. The rating system could use a solid review by its intended audience-especially building owners and professional mechanical engineers.

I encourage HPAC readers to visit the USGBC Website to take a look at the rating system. When you go there, look for a document called the LEED Building Rating System. LEED stands for "Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design." Please send your comments to the Council-its contact information is on its Website.
