🌍🏗️ Importance of Sustainable Building Practices 🏗️🌍 Sustainability is no longer an option but a necessity in construction. Implementing green building practices not only reduces our environmental footprint but also ensures long-term cost savings and healthier living environments.

In the quest for sustainable building practices, the choice of roofing materials plays an important role. Green roofs, also known as living roofs, have emerged as a compelling solution, known for their environmental benefits such as stormwater management and habitat creation. Despite their higher upfront costs, they promise long-term savings and enhanced functionality. Conversely, traditional thatched roofs, while offering insulation, demand regular maintenance and may entail higher upkeep expenses. However determining the ideal roofing option is dependent on a variety of factors like climate, budget considerations, and sustainability objectives, with green roofs gaining prominence in contemporary urban sustainability initiatives.

Green Living Projects has been around since 2008 and always had the ambition to support the built environment industry with the challenge to reduce its environmental footprint. We worked mostly with LEED as a tool to work on that challenge. 16 years later, we believe the way LEED is applied in the industry is not leading to the changes our world needs. So we decided to stop being a green building consultant. Instead, we will be offering something entirely different. From the outside this may seem like a sudden event. In reality, this is the outcome of a process that started several years ago. It included going through the different stages of grief and the emotional drainage caused by the huge gap between what our world needs and what the actual outcome was of our work. Despite the occasional proclamation of high ambitions, few clients showed willingness to forego first cost considerations. Despite the celebrations of sustainable certification outcomes, no real progress to real-world needs has been made. Even LEED V5 is not going to change that. As part of our developmental culture, we deepened our understanding of living systems science and how this applies to the organization of work. We started applying this understanding on ourselves and our own organization which helped us understand the adaptive challenge ahead of us. This has now led to a very different value proposition. For those interested, check out our website and follow us to see how this new story unfolds. Right now, however, we would like to express our gratitude to those that have been an integral part of Green Living Projects for many years and who are now pursuing their own, different purposes. Jordi will be combining his passion for cycling and nature through his organization Serendipia, Valeria Fiorentino is joining her husband at Camí de Llavors, to grow their regenerative farm project and Roberto Zin Teixeira who will bring his understanding of living systems to other organizations in the built environment. Thank you for all these years and your work and dedication. #sustainable #ecological #nature #resources #energy #light #clean #commitment #savings #building #architecture
