High-efficiency HVAC systems reduce the amount of energy needed for heating and cooling. Since most energy production (especially from fossil fuels) generates greenhouse gas emissions, lowering energy consumption directly reduces GHG emissions.
Double-glazed windows help improve energy efficiency, but they’re more of an indirect contributor.
Building Commissioning (Cx) ensures systems are working properly but doesn’t directly reduce emissions.
Native plant landscaping primarily reduces water use and supports biodiversity—not GHG emissions directly.
