Priorities for Green Communities Concept include the following: a) Protect and conserve water and soil. To reduce water consumption, consider the use of water conserving appliances, fixtures, and landscaping. Steps should be taken to minimize the loss of soil and sediment during construction and occupancy to reduce storm -water sediment and air pollution. b) Minimize energy consumption. Reduce energy consumption by taking advantage of natural heating, cooling, and day lighting, and by using energy- efficient appliances, equipment, and lighting. c) Enhance indoor environmental quality. Use non -toxic materials, ventilation and exhaust systems, and moisture control products and systems. d) Use environmentally preferable materials and resources. Use locally - produced, salvaged, and /or manufactured materials, products with recycled content or from renewable sources, recyclable or reusable materials, and low -VOC- emitting materials. e) Reduce waste.
