So let's list them. Here are the ones I know of: 1. Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) 2. Collaborative for High Performance Schools (CHPS) 3. Washington Sustainable Schools Protocol (WSSP) 4. Built Green 5. Passive House 6. Evergreen Sustainable Development Standard 7. Green Globes 8. Building Well Please list others that you know.

Another sustainable building certification program, number 9, is Enterprise Green Communities, for affordable housing projects. Ronald L.

Every municipality and state seems to want to make their own program. Try this page from the Whole Building Design Guide: https://www.wbdg.org/resources/green-building-standards-and-certification-systems It even includes some of the international programs, like Estidama. - Jerome J.

It layers hazard mitigation on top of sustainability. http://c3livingdesign.org/?page_id=5110 http://www.gbci.org/reli http://research.perkinswill.com/?s=reli
