SUMMARY:Building for the Future: Enhancing Resilience with Cool Surfaces in LEED v5
DESCRIPTION:Solar-reflective roofs\, walls\, and pavements reduce heat exposure from individual buildings to communities and globally. LEED v5 integrates surface reflectance across multiple credits and prerequisites\, recognizing its impact on energy\, health\, durability\, and urban heat-island mitigation. The session will address shortcomings in historical climate data and highlight the importance of forward-looking assessments for building design. Presenters will outline relevant LEED v5 credits\, how to use third-party radiative property ratings for documentation\, and certified project examples. Emphasizing systems thinking\, they show how cool surfaces connect envelope\, site\, energy\, and occupant health. \nAfter attending this session\, participants will be able to: \n\nDescribe how LEED v5 integrates cool surface requirements across multiple credits and prerequisites to address heat resilience at building and site scales.\nIdentify the radiative properties that define cool surface performance and explain how third-party rating systems support product comparison and LEED documentation.\nEvaluate the limitations of historical climate baselines for heat exposure and explain how forward-looking climate data informs material and design decisions over a 50-year service life.\nExplain how cool surfaces function within a systems approach to heat-resilient design\, connecting envelope performance\, energy use\, occupant health\, and urban heat island mitigation.\n\nThis webinar can be self-reported for 1 free general-hour of LEED\, WELL\, and/or AIA continuing education. \n\n\n\nGo to Course

SUMMARY:LEED v5 Waste: New Rules\, New Tools\, and What Building Operators Need to Know
DESCRIPTION:LEED v5 represents one of the most meaningful shifts in the rating system in over a decade\, particularly in operational waste\, materials management\, and performance tracking. In this session\, Waste2Zero and Rego will explain the practical waste-related changes in LEED v5 for commercial buildings and portfolios. Using waste audit data from major U.S. properties\, we will look at current diversion and contamination levels and what operators and sustainability consultants need to change to meet the new standard. We will also explore how the broader waste landscape is changing. Haulers are increasingly charging for contamination\, recycling markets continue to evolve\, and new technology tools are improving how waste performance is measured and managed. Attendees will learn how audit data\, AI-assisted waste tracking\, and stronger operational practices can help close the gap between typical diversion rates today and the higher expectations of LEED v5 and modern ESG and EHS reporting. \nBy the end of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify the key operational waste changes introduced in LEED v5 and how they differ from previous LEED versions.\nUnderstand how evolving recycling markets\, contamination fees\, and hauler practices are changing the economics of waste management for building operators.\nEvaluate new tools and technologies\, including AI-assisted waste analytics\, that can help facilities measure and improve diversion performance.\nApply practical strategies that facility teams can implement now to improve diversion\, reduce contamination\, and align with emerging LEED v5 expectations.\n\nThis webinar can be self-reported for 1 free general-hour of LEED\, WELL\, and/or AIA continuing education. \n\n\n\nGo to Course

SUMMARY:Beyond LEED & EDGE: How Local Certifications Raise the Bar for Green Buildings
DESCRIPTION:This session explores why local green building certifications are essential for delivering credible\, high-performance buildings across diverse climates\, energy grids\, and construction contexts\, particularly where global frameworks fall short. Participants will receive a high-level overview of certification systems used across the Americas\, the European Union\, and Asia\, and how they are adapted to local conditions. \nThrough practical case studies\, the session shows how local certifications can meet or exceed benchmarks commonly associated with global schemes across key metrics such as energy\, carbon\, and resilience\, while supporting net zero pathways. It also introduces how Climate Bonds Initiative certification proxies can streamline eligibility assessments and reduce transaction complexity without compromising environmental credibility. \nThe webinar concludes by situating these tools within the Climate Bonds Standards framework\, illustrating how credible local pathways can accelerate market adoption while maintaining transparency and comparability. \nBy the end of this webinar\, attendees will be able to: \n\nExplain why local certification schemes can improve environmental validity by reflecting local climate\, grid emissions factors\, and construction practices\, as well as how these schemes collect data on the performance of a building. \nCompare local certification requirements with international benchmarks such as EDGE and LEED\, using measurable indicators. \nAssess how Climate Bonds’ certification proxies can reduce implementation barriers by simplifying evidence requirements and accelerating screening/verification.\nIdentify at least three market and policy benefits of enabling multiple credible certification options \n\nThis webinar can be self-reported for 1 free general-hour of LEED\, WELL\, and/or AIA continuing education. \n\n\n\nGo to Course

SUMMARY:Understanding and Implementing the New Resiliency Requirements in LEED v5
DESCRIPTION:GBES\, in collaboration with ClimateFirst\, presents a webinar exploring the new resiliency requirements introduced in LEED v5 and their growing importance amid increasing climate risks. Attendees will gain practical insights into the updated prerequisites and credits\, discover how to meet them using ClimateFirst’s data-driven tools\, and understand how resiliency planning enhances certification outcomes and long-term building performance. The session will also address integrating resiliency into broader compliance\, decarbonization\, and risk management strategies to drive greater value across real estate portfolios. \nLearning Objectives By the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to: \n• Understand the urgency of climate resiliency and identify at least three key climate risks impacting buildings in a specific region. \n• Define the key resiliency requirements introduced in LEED v5 certification. \n• Identify tools and approaches to assess climate risk and implement effective resiliency strategies. \n• Develop a strategic approach to integrating resiliency measures in alignment with business objectives and risk mitigation plans. \nThis webinar can be self-reported for one free general hour of LEED\, WELL\, and/or AIA continuing education. \n\n\n\nGo to Course
