Five Sustainability Tools for the Built Environment

Posted by Panagiotis Tsarchopoulos at 10 January 2011 in Cities

The Big City Blog presents five tools for the assessment of the sustainable building developments. These tools enable us to take into account a number of other factors beyond the economic gain, such as social, environmental and economic needs, in order to arrive at a truly sustainable built environment.

These tools are:

BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method)
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
CASBEE (Comprehensive Assessment System for Built Environment Efficiency)
Envest II
SPeAR (Sustainable Project Appraisal Routine)
