The USGBC board just appointed Peter Templeton, the current president and CEO of the Cradle-to-Cradle Products Innovation Institute, as USGBC’s interim president and CEO. Broadly respected (even beloved), Mr. Templeton is exactly the right person to meet this moment.
Mahesh Ramanujam reflects on his tenure in the green building industry — including as COO and CEO of USGBC, and CEO of @GBCI and Arc — and what's next:

Come to the GTZForum2021 (and of course to @Greenbuild 2021) and join others eager and capable of changing the world. To get revved up for the NBI Forum take a course like LEED and Building Energy Codes: Accelerating a Decarbonized Future #GTZForum2021.
Q13: While the #IPCCReport had a serious tone on the #ClimateCrisis, it also emphasized that reducing emissions can make a major difference. How can we push for change to make this a priority in the #BuildingSector and beyond? #GTZForum2021

All true. but again a bit too modest…the reference to passive haus energy standards in NYC’s building code is game changer #GTZForum2021.
Passive building is a proven baseline for #NetZero design. #PhiusCertification brings optimized performance targets for the design with the quality assurance during construction and commissioning that makes #highperformance a reality and projected savings reliable. #GTZForum2021.
