The Environmental Justice and Equity for Federal Green Buildings Task Group will identify and propose effective approaches to improve environmental justice and equity in federal sustainable building processes, enhancing engagement with communities and key partners throughout the building lifecycle.
The Federal Building Decarbonization Task Group will explore opportunities and challenges for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, in alignment with national climate goals and action plans, through the use of renewable energy, energy efficiency, electrification and smart building technologies at federal facilities.
These web-based meetings will allow the task groups to develop consensus recommendations for deliberation by the full Committee, which will, in turn, decide whether to proceed with formal advice to GSA based upon these recommendations.
