The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) released its ranking of the top 10 countries for LEED outside of the United States, demonstrating the global reach of the movement that is transforming the built environment into healthy, high-performing structures that benefit the planet and all of its people. "The global community is increasingly recognizing the imperative for action as we combat the extraordinary challenge of worldwide climate change," said Rick Fedrizzi, president, CEO and founding chair, USGBC. "LEED's success across a wide variety of cultures, climates and communities represents not only a growing recognition of its demonstrated benefits for human health and operational cost savings, but also its unparalleled potential to be part of the solution to a warming planet and rising sea levels."
