What is a sustainable home?

One of the key challenges faced by WWF and other stakeholders was the definition of a "sustainable home".

Following consultation with stakeholders, WWF found a general consensus that the BRE EcoHomes standard was a good starting point.

The feedback from stakeholders was that while EcoHomes is not perfect, it does begin to address the fundamental impact of housing on the environment, and BRE is committed to developing and improving the standard over time.
