The buildings we live, work and play in tend to take their toll-on the environment and our wallets. Buildings in the United States account for 72 percent of all electrical energy consumption-40 percent commercial and 32 percent residential-and are responsible for 39 percent of CO2 emissions, 13 percent water consumption and 15 percent of GDP per year. With the goal of reducing these statistics, ASHRAE has created two standards geared to achieving greater energy efficient and greener buildings
