Sustainability consultant

A sustainability consultant is someone who advises businesses on methods to deliver their products or services in a sustainable manner (usually in an ecological sense). Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has grown to be a very specific field and includes focal areas like ""green building, renewable energy, waste management and sustainable development"."
Sustainability consults are also referred to as green consultants, eco consultants and environmental management consultant.
For example, a sustainability consultant may give advice on the engineering challenges in meeting modern day building standards, such as the LEED Green Building Rating System. Sustainability consultants might also advise a business on how to achieve carbon neutrality, improve waste management practices and move toward using more renewable or clean energy sources.
Businesses interested in "going green" might employ a sustainability consultant.
Construction and Engineering.
Sustainability consultants for building construction focus largely on the energy performance of a building: how much energy will be needed to heat, cool, or otherwise power a building, and how efficiently this energy can be recycled. They might also consult on the source of the energy if it will be from an alternative source.
One engineering technique to reduce energy usage is Passive Building Design.
