One theme that is common across all of humanity is the pursuit of a better life — the innate desire to improve, create and cultivate. At USGBC, we have a vision that buildings and communities will regenerate and sustain the health and vitality of all life within a generation. In support of this, USGBC released two new pilot certification programs today: LEED for Cities and LEED for Communities.

These offerings, built into the newly released Arc platform, will support continuous progress toward better communities and cities, and a higher quality of life. LEED for Cities and LEED for Communities do this by asking a community or a city to set goals, and implement strategies and plans to maintain and support these goals. The city or community then shares performance data to measure and track progress toward those goals.
