Some of the top green criteria industrial business owners are considering include:
• Environmental impact from building operations;
• Energy consumption and efficiency of lighting and HVAC;
• Choice of building materials, fabrics, and systems;
• Clean air and drinking water, and a healthy environment for employees; and
• Hazardous gas or chemical emissions from building operations or materials.
Industrial owners' attitudes towards sustainable development are also shifting. In a survey conducted by Jones Lang LaSalle and CoreNet Global, nearly 70 percent of 400 surveyed corporate real estate executives called sustainability a "critical business issue." In 2009, 74 percent of those surveyed said they would pay premium prices to sustainably retrofit sites, compared to 53 percent in 2008.
