Historic tax credits promote environmental and economic sustainability by encouraging the reuse and rehabilitation of existing buildings. Reusing historic buildings reduces waste, preserves land, and supports well-paying local jobs. A study of historic buildings in Over-the-Rhine, Cincinnati found that rehabilitation to earn LEED certification and historic tax credits was achievable and increased property values. Early communication between historic preservation and green building experts helps avoid conflicts and ensures projects meet all standards.

Locuinta bioclimatica
The project proposes a bioclimatic approach for mountain area habitations that is inspired by vernacular architecture. The habitations are built partially into sloping fields for thermal stability. The upper story faces south to capture solar energy in winter and is shaded in summer. Heating and hot water are provided by air-water pumps and solar panels. Utilities use a nearby spring for water and a micro-station treats wastewater. Natural ventilation occurs through east-west cavities and a soil-based ventilation system. Buried lower levels use light tubes for natural lighting. This approach aims to minimize environmental impact, use local materials, blend with the landscape, and reduce energy consumption and costs.

Green buildings aim to reduce environmental impact through sustainable design and construction practices. LEED certification is a point-based rating system that evaluates buildings in several categories like energy efficiency, water conservation, materials selection, and indoor air quality. While some think green buildings are more expensive, studies show the average premium is less than 2% of costs while savings from reduced electricity and water usage offset increased costs within the first year. Various LEED certification programs exist for new and existing buildings including schools, focusing on factors like sustainable sites, water and energy efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality.

Iin the middle of los angeles’s end-less sprawl sits an unusual-looking gas sta-tion made of recycled materials and sus-
tainably harvested wood. Its roof is an
abstract assembly of polygons topped with
solar panels. The owner, petroleum giant
BP, calls it Helios House and touts it as
America’s fi rst “green” gas station, be -
cause it is certifi ed according to the stan-
dards of Leadership in Energy and Envi-
ronmental Design (LEED), the most com-
monly used rating system for sustainable
architecture.
Of course, the building is still a gas sta-
tion: it sells petroleum-based fuel that is
burned in automobiles and thereby endan-
gers the environment. The incongruity of
a gas station being hailed as green is not
strictly the fault of its architecture. Never-
theless, Helios House is emblematic of
how hollow LEED certifi cation can be as
an indicator of a building’s environmental
benignity. Too often LEED can reward
building planners for taking some envi-
ronmentally progressive steps while ignor-
ing deeper problems.

LEED certifi cations are handed out
by the U.S. Green Building Council
(USGBC), a Washington, D.C.–based
non profi t that encourages architects to
design environmentally friendly build-
ings. The program is a response to the
long-ignored fact that buildings hurt the
environment: raw materials and energy
are required to manufacture the structur-
al components, land is taken, energy and
waste are involved in erecting the struc-
tures, and fuel is consumed to heat, cool
and otherwise operate them. Architecture
may be responsible for nearly half of
America’s energy consumption.
The LEED Rating System Checklist,
launched in 2000, grades buildings—pri-
marily commercial ones— on the sustain-
ability of their materials, their heating and
cooling effi ciency, control of storm water
runoff, and other criteria. New or retrofi t-
ted buildings amass points on the checklist
and are then designated as platinum, gold,
silver or simply certifi ed [see box on page
58]. Owners must fi le an application with
the USGBC that includes building blue-
prints and energy estimations, although
there is no enforcement mechanism such as
spot-checking to verify the estimates or
checkups after a building opens to make
sure the qualifying equipment or opera-
tions have not changed.
Critics complain that the system can be
gamed to garner the wonderful-sounding
public relations that LEED certifi cation
often generates. By erecting a single green
building, huge companies can gain consid-

What Makes A Building Green
This document discusses the climatic zones of India and their implications for green building design. It outlines five main climatic zones - hot and dry, warm and humid, moderate/temperate, cold (cloudy/sunny), and composite. For each zone, it describes the key thermal comfort requirements and how they can be addressed through physical design elements like building orientation, insulation, shading, ventilation strategies, and materials. The hot and dry zone focuses on reducing heat gain, while the warm and humid zone addresses both heat gain reduction and heat loss promotion through ventilation. Addressing climatic considerations is an important part of integrated green building design.
