Green Globes LogoTry Green Globes’ online green building rating software free for 30 days! If you are looking for a quick and uncomplicated way to rate your new or existing building’s "greenness" this tool is your perfect match. Using Green Globes online green building rating software and Green Globes certification, you can truly answer the question – How green is your building?

Here’s How Green Globes Rating and Certification Works

It’s easy, simply logon to greenglobes.com to begin your online green building assessment. Next, you will answer easy to understand questions about your new or existing building (depending on which Green Globes tool you choose). Topics include resource, water, and energy use, indoor environment, and site and project management. Once the "green" survey is completed, Green Globes calculates and rates your building’s green attributes and also provides suggestions to make your building greener.

The Green Globes rating system provides you with a score of 0–1000. Once 350 points or more are achieved, the building qualifies to apply for Green Globe’s official certification. A third–party green building professional will assist on–site by performing walkthroughs of the building and by reviewing documentation. When certified, Green Globes buildings can earn 1 – 4 globes, with four globes being the greenest.
