A Comparison Of China And Western Green Building Rating Systems(Community Level)

Since the 1970 s, the worldwide shortage of energy and gradually began to inhibit economic development and undermine simultaneous global catastrophic climate, ecosystems will threaten the survival of the people. The next few decades or even longer period of time, green building will choose which of the development path? The concept of green building in this trend emerged in the last two decades have produced and developed countries in the world to deal with the increasingly serious energy crisis and environmental and ecological destruction.From 1997 the "Kyoto Protocol" to develop, by 2009 Copenhagen for carbon emissions to control climate change generally implemented and proposed ways to draw the relevant national duty obligations, the implementation of green building has become the responsibility incumbent upon all countries, green architecture has become the best solution in the industry resource utilization, environmental protection, building energy use performance, healthy and comfortable environment Habitat concept and implementation approach. Three decades, with the improvement of the concept of sustainable development, the world has to understand the trend in green building concept, standards and promote the application of consistent and mature, the current assessment system known and mainstream British BREEAM system and the United States LEED system.China is in a stage of rapid development, socio-economic aspects of sustainable development are facing serious challenges. China's energy system, the building energy consumption and associated energy consumption accounts for the proportion of China's total energy consumption of the national economy exceeds 27%(from "low-carbon path"), currently still a percentage point / fast speed increasing annually.This paper focuses on the United Kingdom, the United States and other established standards, combined with China's green targets existing situation, a comparative study from the "four sections of a green" perspective, these high international recognition evaluation system mentioned above do system study and classification comparison, both the evaluation system to identify Chinese green label with the international advanced concept similarities and differences and similarities can also find Chinese green label can learn where the future through comparative studies, in order to promote the further development of its future.
