The Living Building Challenge v3.0 calls for buildings to achieve net-positive water use. The current building codes in the city of Atlanta make this impossible. The panel discussion will cover how to achieve net-zero or net-positive water use, the positive impacts, the negative impacts, and how our current and future legislature views water use for buildings.
