The Biden administration on Thursday offered up a definition for what is considered a zero-emission building, as part of an effort to reduce building emissions around the country.
The new definition is completely voluntary — but seeks to help industry figure out how to move toward cutting the structures’ contributions to climate change.
“The National Definition of a Zero Emissions Building will support the sector as it advances innovative solutions essential to creating resilient communities and high-quality jobs,” Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said in a written statement.
In order to be considered zero emission, a building must be energy efficient, have no onsite emissions from its energy use and be powered only by carbon-free power sources.

Union tactic. You want 7 so you demand 10 and “negotiate” aka extort your way down to 7.
Are portapotties exempt?
Holes in the ground only from now on
If Biden wins he election, they’ll be issuing voluntary guidelines for no-emission cows and horses and dogs and cats and chickens and humans.
“The new definition is completely voluntary”
UH HUH......classic ‘Boiling Frog’ syndrome
Zero Brains love the Zero Emissions ,LOL
Biden administration issues voluntary guidelines for Joe Biden’s no-emission flatulence. Charcoal underwear and only 1 pudding cup per day, lactose-free milk only.
Industry should be telling govt. how to achieve zero emission buildings but we live in a TYRANY, hence the situation is reversed.
Fart on the 3rd floor.
Gas on the first.
“no onsite emissions from its energy use and be powered only by carbon-free power sources.”
In other words, ALL ELECTRIC. Good luck with that.
And “Voluntary” — until FJB (or the next Dem) gets elected POTUS. These bastards always ratchet this stuff down and they are now at the point of complete impossibility.
This needs to start with all of Fedzilla. Let’s see them working in DC offices with no AC.
So the Biden administration has concern about zero-emission do they have an idea about an electric commercial planes that dumps millions of gallons of fuel before the land.
Filters for volcanos or gasses from swamps................
The BS they try to pass off for total control is ridicules they have unlimited stupidity.
Get all the fanatics in the building, lock the doors, wrap the building and shrink wrap.
An empty building has zero emissions.
Volunteer to stop breathing? RAT convention coming up...
Wrap it in metal foil - reinforced where traffic is expected - and cut all power. That should do it.
Wrap it in metal foil - reinforced where traffic is expected - and cut all power and water. That should do it.
