WEVE 2 - Why LEEDŽ Buildings Use More Energy Than Comparable Buildings, & How Serious Practitioners Can Avoid the Same Results (Where LEED Is Not Yet Required by Law)
Wednesday, April 29, 2009 · 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
Why do architects and engineers with decades of experience take orders from someone with a professional certification that can be earned in 8 hours? Who benefits from the public’s faith in LEED, and who is harmed by it? Find out why building energy use continues to be perhaps the largest field of human endeavor in which almost nobody measures anything (except the utility companies, whose data is mostly ignored). Recognize the allure of modeling, and how it plays a role in this mess. Will things get better before they get worse?
