LEED, or Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, is the most widely used green building rating system in the world. Available for virtually all building, community and home project types, LEED provides a framework to create healthy, highly efficient and cost-saving green buildings. LEED certification is a globally recognized symbol of sustainability achievement.

With more agencies looking to encourage Green Building, such as the City of Boston’s requirement that projects needing special permits must also demonstrate “LEED Certifiability,” and a level of comfort by designers and builders that LEED is a credible marketing tool, LEED BD+C: Homes seems here to stay.
