What types of land does LEED prefer project teams build on?
A: Floodplains
B: Greenfields
C: Brownfields
D: Farmland

参考答案: C

本题解释:
LEED does not award points for building in floodplains.

Greenfields are sites not previously developed or graded that could support
open space, habitat, or agriculture. (USGBC)
LEED prefers not building on greenfields but using previously developed land
instead.

Brownfields are previously used or developed land that may be contaminated
with hazardous substances or pollutants.
LEED credit can be earned for projects that remediate the site and build on it.

LEED does not award points for building on farmland.
