All respondents work for firms or companies that incorporate sustainable building elements (beyond code) in at least a few of the company’s projects. Almost half (44%) work for companies that incorporate sustainable elements into all projects. The breakdown by profession was generally similar to the total breakdown, except that all four of the respondents in the sustainable building consultants group say that they incorporate sustainable elements into every project that they do.
