The editors of Building Design+Construction would like to get your input on the topic (or topics) we should tackle for our 2012 green building White Paper.
In our eight previous White Papers, we’ve covered the early days of LEED (2003 and 2004); life cycle assessment of green building products (2005); the business case for green buildings (2006); sustainability by building type (2007); green buildings and climate change (2008); water performance (2009); and net-zero energy buildings and homes (2011). These may be downloaded free at www.BDCnetwork.com/whitepapers.
Send your ideas or topics for the 2012 Building Design+Construction White Paper on Sustainability to: Robert Cassidy, Editorial Director, rcassidy@sgcmail.com.
