WHY GREEN BUILDINGS?
Buildings impact people's lives and the health of the planet. ENERGY:
► In the United States buildings account for about 70% of all electricity► In the United States, buildings account for about 70% of all electricity usage, and 37% of all energy consumption. *
ECOSYSTEMS: ► Construction affects both movement and absorption of storm water.
NATURAL RESOURCES:► Buildings use resources directly and indirectly.

LEADERSHIP: LEED®
• All new Indiana University Buildings are designed to be certified at th il l l i th U S G B ildi C il' L d hi ithe silver level in the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) rating system.
• This rating system encourages the adoption of sustainable building• This rating system encourages the adoption of sustainable building and development practices.
• Energy efficiency and environmental consciousness are the• Energy efficiency and environmental consciousness are the cornerstone of all new IU building projects.
• Refrigerants used in the chilled water plant do not use CFCsRefrigerants used in the chilled water plant do not use CFCs (chlorinated fluorocarbons), harmful chemicals known to cause ozone depletion.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Our dependence on fossil fuels takes a toll on the environment and depletes resources f h h ld b l d IU i i d i d ilifaster than they could ever be replaced. IU is committed to metering energy and utility consumption in all buildings. This information is used to track costs, troubleshoot problems, and establish benchmarks to measure future usage.

GREEN SPACE
ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS SITE WORK:►► Buildings and utilities were placed to preserve existing mature trees.► Hundreds of new trees were planted to create a southern Indiana
woodland setting consistent with the renowned campus grounds. ► Areas of unmowed turf grass reduce carbon emissions by minimizing the► Areas of unmowed turf grass reduce carbon emissions by minimizing the
need for mowing.► Plantings in areas with a special soil mix further increase water
absorption.► f ll d f h d h b h l► A green roof was installed to further reduce heat absorption, help manage
rain water, as well as increase the roof’s lifespan.
