How does LEED evaluate the environmental performance of a building ?

B: Through a cradle to grave analysis
C: By the amount of energy reduction
D: From a whole building perspective over a building’s life cycle

参考答案: D

本题解释:
正确答案：D
系统解析: D:See LEED Today in reference.

LEED looks at the environmental performance of a building through the building’s entire life cycle, from pre-design until deconstruction.

A:LEED Online is the tool used for LEED documentation.

B:Cradle to grave is the linear view of the life of a product, from creation to the end of useful life, i.e. disposal.

LEED uses the term ’whole building perspective’ or ’whole building approach’, not cradle-to-grave.

C:Energy reduction is only one factor in LEED. Site, water, materials, and the indoor environment are the other factors.
