Sustainable design and construction improve the built environment’s impact on climate and society. Green Globes® for New Construction (NC) 2021 is the implementation of a consensus-based ANSI Standard (ANSI/GBI 01-2021: Green Globes Assessment Protocol for Design, New Construction and Major Renovations) that drives innovation in sustainability, promotes a healthy and safe environment for tenants, and encourages life cycle thinking from project conception. This third-party assessment and certification system serves as a comprehensive design guide, used to elevate the sustainability and future operational practices for new construction and major renovation projects. Attendees will learn how to apply GBI’s Green Globes and Green Globes Journey to Net Zero™ programs to improve sustainability and to measure and accelerate decarbonization efforts in all types of new commercial real estate.
