GPG 312 Invest to Save
Buildings that are too hot or too cold can adverselyaffect the occupants’ comfort levels, morale andproductivity. Saving energy also reduces emissionsof carbon dioxide (CO2), the principal contributorto climate change, and other gases causing airpollution and acid rain.Energy reductions are essential to meet thegovernment’s legally binding target, agreed at Kyoto in 1997, to reduce a basket of greenhousegases by 12.5% on 1990 levels by 2012.
