REINVENTING GREEN BUILDING

Carbon Free by 2030!

A New Presentation for 2017 by Jerry Yudelson ~ Known as one of the country's leading experts on green building

Building construction and operations are the largest source of carbon emissions in the world. The 2030 Challenge aims to produce zero net-energy from new construction by 2030 while cutting 50% of carbon emissions from existing buildings. Yet, after 15 years of LEED, less than 1% of all commercial and residential structures in the U.S. and
Canada are certified to a green building standard.

Reinventing Green Building combines an insider's critique of the current state of affairs with a potent vision for the future. This presentation combines:

-Up-to-date, factual information on green building programs, certifications, costs and market penetration

-Radical new approaches to designing certification systems and enhancing user experience

-Creative, outside-the-box solutions using the Internet of Things, big data analytics and cloud-based technologies for building management.

-Reinventing Green Building presents a dramatically new approach to building certification, designed to radically cut costs while rapidly increasing marketplace uptake.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
-Size of the US buildings market and status of LEED certification programs

-New technology options for building certification
