"People in developed countries spend as much as 90% of time indoors"

Consume almost 40% of all energy
Add 40% to atmospheric emissions
Use 68% of all electricity
Use 12% freshwater and 88% potable water
Create up to 40% municipal solid waste stream
Exploit significant amounts of land
80% percent of Americans now live in cities.
By 2050, 90 percent will.
Green Buildings: Industry Standard

“As green goes mainstream, standard buildings will rapidly become obsolete and lose value. To avoid this problem, building owners should carry out green renovations. …corporations no longer have an excuse for eschewing the environmental and economic sustainability - they have access to tools that are proven to lower overhead costs, improve productivity, and strengthen the bottom line.”
