Living building challenge:

    Energy, water and waste self sufficient (audit for one year with no failures) Materials sourcing based on density (steel, concrete, wood, etc.) Nothing can be toxic in progressproduction, use, or disposal (the “red list”) https://living-future.org/declare/declare-about/red-list/ LBC petals (see below) Pass/fail
