It may look white – but our building is green! On this unique tour, we’ll show how the National Library of Israel’s new residence received a platinum ranking (the highest possible ranking) for green building from the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification program. We’ll examine the building from all angles. Deep underground, we’ll observe the building’s “ecological air conditioner” and talk about sustainable development. In the reading halls, we’ll take in the sunlight and examine ways to deal with solar radiation. In the Library gardens, we’ll enjoy local flora and discuss saving water and energy. This is sustainability like you’ve never seen it before!
