Green Building Treatise Green building is all about science-physics, chemistry, and
biology. It's really about ecology because ecology is about physics,
chemistry, and biology. Green building is all about systems and

Green Building Programs -- An Overview
by Peter Yost, Building Standards Magazine, March -
April 2002, pgs. 12-16. Yost uses an overview of local green building
programs to show what they have meant to some building officials or
jurisdictions, and what they can mean to those looking for an
inter-relationship among the codes, green building, and building
science. This article is offered here with permission from Building
Standards magazine. The article is in just one of three issues in
which Building Standards has featured green building. These issues
have been developed in a partnership with the Development Center for
Appropriate Technology, a partner with BSC in the Building America
program. For more information, go to:
