LEED is the world’s leading green building program and performance management system, delivering a comprehensive framework for green building design, construction, operations and performance. Today’s version of LEED raises the bar on building standards to address carbon, energy efficiency, water conservation, site selection, material selection, day lighting and waste reduction. With a rigorous focus on material selection, air quality and human health and comfort, project teams can prioritize the most important asset of a LEED project—people.

LEED-certified buildings are proven to save money, improve efficiency, lower carbon emissions and create healthier places for people. They are critical to addressing the climate crisis, meeting ESG goals, enhancing resilience, and supporting more equitable communities.
