The document discusses energy audits, which involve inspecting and analyzing energy usage in buildings, processes, or systems to identify opportunities to reduce energy input without negatively impacting output. Energy audits can be preliminary or detailed depending on factors like the industry, desired cost reductions, and depth needed. The objectives of an audit include cost reduction by analyzing expenses. Conducting audits can help reduce carbon footprints by identifying solutions to lower greenhouse gas emissions from sources like electricity generation, transportation, and water usage. Individual actions like calculating one's carbon footprint and supporting renewable energy can also help address global warming.

5. What is a sustainable building?Uses key resources more efficiently – energy, water, materials and land

6. Reduces ecological loading – greenhouse gases, ozone-depleting substances, wastes

7. Creates healthier environments for people to live, work and learn

8. Has lower overall lifecycle costsEnergy Audit‘Energy Audit’ :inspection, survey and analysis of energy flows for energy conservation in a building, process or system to reduce the amount of energy input into the system without negatively affecting the output(s)Industry based:Minimize energy costsReduce environmental effectsBenchmark: unexpected or excessive costs

9. The type of Energy Audit to be performed depends on:Function and type of industry Depth to which final audit is needed Potential and magnitude of cost reduction desired Thus Energy Audit can be classified into the following two typesPreliminary Audit Detailed Audit

17. What is Carbon FootprintMeasure of the impact our activities have on the environment, and in particular climate change.Relates to the amount of GHG’s produced in our day-to-day lives.

18. The pie chart above shows the main elements whichmake up the total of an typical person's carbon footprint in the developed world.

19. Global Warming“Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, as is now evident from increases in global average air and ocean temperatures, melting of snow and ice, and rising sea level.”
