20 Our mission is to dramatically improve the sustainability of the built environment, by radically transforming the way it is planned, designed, constructed, maintained and operated.

21 UK The Climate Change Act 2008 makes the UK the first country in the world to have a legally binding long-term framework to cut carbon emissions. It also creates a framework for building the UK's ability to adapt to climate change.

22 UK Residential 2016 Zero Carbon The Green Deal Non-Residential Targets for non domestic buildings from 2019 A non-domestic refurbishment strategy being developed, including a trajectory for minimum standards and financial incentives, with the support of industry

23 Canada The Living Building Challenge is a program initially launched by the Cascadia Green Building Council and has quickly become the most advanced green building rating system in the world.

32 Building Baselines Globally consistent calculation methodology Aggregated data type/location/energy supply Targets can be set against baselines Methodology can be used for CDMs

33 Principles of CDM Estimate carbon reduction Track and report actual reduction Trade carbon credits A Life Cycle Analysis was carried out for WFC and ten environmental impacts we assessed. The results show that the design of WFC reduces operational environmen impacts of the base case by 42% with the 50 year operational environmental impa reduced from 2.98 HK eco-point per construction floor area to 1.72 HK eco-point construction floor area. Additionally an overall energy savings of 23% was achiev WFC is surrounded by extensive landscaping with native trees and plants, creating 12,000 square metres of public open space, the largest in Beijing. The space incor sitting out areas, exhibition and performance areas and water features. There is als space for future outdoor sculptures. These landscaped areas were strategically pla at the eastern and western sides of the tower to reduce wind blockage and alleviat the heat island effect by evaportranspiration. Together with the moderate height of towers, the openness is unique and refreshing.
