The Footprint Quiz
Join us in developing local strategies to meet Ed Mazria's "2030 Challenge"! Learn more: www.Architecture2030.org
In December 2005, the American Institute of Architects adopted Mr. Mazria's 2030 Challenge:
• That all new buildings and developments be designed immediately to use 1/2 the fossil fuel energy they would typically consume.
• That at a minimum, an equal amount of existing building area be renovated annually to use 1/2 the amount of fossil fuel energy they are currently consuming (through design, purchase of renewable energy and/or the application of renewable technologies).
• That the fossil fuel reduction standard for all new buildings be increased to: 60% in 2010, 70% in 2015, 80% in 2020, 90% in 2025, and Carbon-neutral by 2030 (using no fossil fuel greenhouse gas emitting energy to operate).
