Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Renovating an existing building using recycled and salvaged building materials is an example of a life-cycle approach to development or design. A life-cycle approach is an approach that considers the environmental impacts of a product or a project from cradle to grave, or from extraction of raw materials to disposal or reuse. Renovating an existing building using recycled and salvaged building materials reduces the environmental impacts associated with new construction, such as land use change, resource depletion, energy consumption, waste generation, and greenhouse gas emissions. The LEED Green Associate Candidate Handbook states that one of the intents of the Materials and Resources category is to ''promote life-cycle assessment as a means of evaluating environmental impacts'' [1, p. 15].Reference:LEED Green Associate Candidate Handbook, [Life Cycle Assessment | U.S. Department of Energy]
