The sustainability movement has been accelerating rapidly over the past decade and continues to evolve, as public awareness of global warming and the circular economy has grown.
The focus on the design and development of building products, the creation of new solutions from architects, developers, and community planners, and collaborations between corporations, consultants, manufacturers, and policymakers have resulted in breakthrough innovations. Technology has enabled communities and countries to share results, eliminate waste, and track the effectiveness of LEED adoption and energy-saving solutions.
Today’s business leaders are stepping up to solve problems, partnering with sustainability leaders, and bringing competencies in-house. Consumers are more aware than ever of where they live, work, and shop. Fueling the greenbuilding movement today and tomorrow are the realities of COVID-19 and the need for decision-makers to create safer and healthier environments for humans.
We reached out to the movers and shakers of the green building movement and gathered their perspectives on where the world is heading over the next decade. This report includes their insights and predictions.
