This past Saturday, the Homebuilders Association Vancouver (HAVAN) handed A LOT of awards out to its members at a very classy event in downtown Vancouver. Hundreds and hundreds of folks were there to celebrate excellence in homebuilding. Among the many categories were five for climate-friendly and/or energy-efficient homes and multi-family developments. That's impressive. The fact that there are five categories with this theme is an obvious sign that there are A LOT of progressive builders in HAVAN and a lot of high-performance homes being built - many of which already meet the top step of both the Energy and Zero Carbon Step Codes. Congratulations to Naikoon, TQ Construction and StreetSide Developments - Vancouver, to name a few, for their much-deserved awards. They deserve a lot of recognition for this. Climate leadership can grow from anywhere within an organization, but in these companies, climate leadership beats in the hearts of its presidents, CEOs, directors and senior staff too. It's great to see a growing number of private sector companies developing a double bottom line ... financial and environmental.

Warren Buffett wants to know why we’re still building like the 1800s. Homes today are still being built like 150 years ago with some improvements. Basements are poured, there is more insulation, windows are bigger, but the systems and labor are the same. It’s about to be disrupted. Green Building has been a buzzword for a while, but there is confusion about what it means. 40% of all the energy consumed is from buildings, both commercial and residential. In Minnesota, most builders are green. Minnesota’s code compliance is an 85-page book, and builders have to build to minimum standards.
