1. What is the US Green Building Council (USGBC)’s attitude toward its strategic goals?
The USGBC uses its strategic goals as ideal targets that it likely will never reach but that can achieve good by striving toward.
The USGBC’s strategic goals represent an ongoing mission to promote the values of sustainability and resilience on multiple fronts.
The USGBC should reach its strategic goals within the next two years as long as it gets the cooperation it needs.
The USGBC’s strategic goals represent a six-point plan for promoting the positive economic impact of green building.
2. Catastrophic flooding hits a state in the Midwest after a massive storm system moves through the area. Entire neighborhoods are washed away in multiple cities. The state is receiving federal support in its rebuilding efforts, but still the amount of work to be done is tremendous. How can the US Green Building Council (USGBC) best help this state get back on its feet? (Select all that apply.)
Review the specific needs of the communities involved and drive the rebuilding efforts to meet those communities’ needs better than before.
Encourage local construction businesses that achieve high LEED ratings on their projects to lead the construction effort.
Influence the rebuilding effort at all levels, including the federal, to be as sustainable as possible within the confines of need.
Demonstrate how more resilient forms of construction could have better withstood the flooding’s impact.
3. LEED is a benchmark for green building recognized only within the United States.

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
