About us
The Green Building Initiative (GBI) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the built environment and reduce climate impacts through exceptional education, tools, standards, and assessments that deliver sustainable, healthy, and resilient buildings. Our strategy for accomplishing our goals involves education and promotion on the use of GBI's Green Globes certification program for commercial buildings and GBI's Guiding Principles Compliance and third-party assessment program for federal building sustainability requirements. GBI's flagship certification, Green Globes, is the difference between rigor and rigid.

Tuesday | September 10, 2024 | 4:00 - 7:00 pm | Lorax's Learning Before Libations Please join us for Lorax's DC Building Energy Performance Standards (BEPS) Learning Before Libations. At this in-person happy hour event we will share lessons learned from the current cycle of Washington, DC's implementation of BEPS. Michael Feldman-Wiencek, Green Building + Housing Affordability Program Analyst at the Department of Energy & Environment (DOEE), will review the DC BEPS program and highlight how building designers and owners can avoid common compliance mistakes. We will also discuss what Maryland building owners can learn from the DC implementation of BEPS as the Maryland Climate Solutions Now Act is implemented. The brief presentation will be followed by hors d'oeuvres, wine, beer, and an ice cream truck.
