The term sustainability is often followed by many buzzwords and acronyms that we may or may not fully understand – what is Greenhouse Gas (GHG)? Global Warming Potential (GWP)? How do we measure Carbon Footprint? A good understanding of these terms can lead to a fuller understanding of the concept, which improves our ability to make a positive impact on our buildings and our planet.

1. How is sustainability defined and measured?
2. What do basic terms such as emissions, GHG, GWP, and CO2e mean?
