Deepening Perspectives on Sustainable Land Development
http://www.sldi.org/newService/SLDIJan2010.html
Green building certification programs today pay scant attention to landscaping, but they should, according to the Sustainable Sites Initiative, which has just announced release of the world’s first rating system for the design, construction and maintenance of sustainable landscapes. This and other certification programs fit well within the scope of holistic sustainable land development principles and Sustainable Land Development International (SLDI) embraces their development. In fact, a SLDI project has applied to participate in the Sustainable Sites Initiative as a portion of its pilot phase participation in The SLDI Code™ best practices system.
Your participation and comments are welcome.
