- Abstract:
The article reports that the Green Building Council of Australia has announced that an office building in Canberra is the first to earn certification under Green Star for Office Design, a new tool for rating the environmental responsibility of building designs. Meanwhile, in the U.S., a $10 million, 80,000 square foot Giant Eagle supermarket near Cleveland, Ohio is the first grocery store to achieve LEED certification. The store's energy-efficient lighting systems include the use of fiber-optics in the wine-room cooler to provide nearly heat-free light, which will help reduce cooling needs.
