STARS Sustainability: Climate, Energy, Water
This project will assess the School of Architecture’s Energy, Water, and Climate expenditures according to the Sustainability Tracking Assessment and Rating System (STARS). It will also offer several sustainable alternatives the school could implement in order to increase it’s STARS score. We used the 2010 version of the STARS rating system to calculate the current STARS rating for Campbell Hall. The school’s final rating was reached by calculating data accumulated from the school’s energy, water, and climate activities within the last five years. We then proposed and performed a detailed analysis of several different best management practices (BMPs) that the school could implement in order to improve its rating.
