Oxygen is not a greenhouse gas, while carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide are all greenhouse gases emitted by buildings.

Buildings account for approximately 40% of global energy consumption.

Leaving windows and doors open will increase energy consumption, while using energy-efficient appliances, improving insulation, and using renewable energy sources will all reduce energy consumption.

Retrofitting is the process of making buildings more energy-efficient by installing new equipment or making changes to the building's structure.

Energy-efficient buildings will reduce energy consumption, not increase it.

Net-zero building, passive house, and energy-positive building are all terms for buildings that produce more energy than they consume.

Fossil fuels are not a renewable energy source, while solar energy, wind energy, and hydropower are all renewable energy sources that can be used to power buildings.

Green building, sustainable building, and eco-friendly building are all terms for buildings that are designed to minimize their environmental impact.

Using single-use plastics is not a way to make a building more sustainable, while using recycled materials, reducing water consumption, and using energy-efficient appliances are all ways to make a building more sustainable.

Life cycle assessment, environmental impact assessment, and sustainability assessment are all terms for the process of assessing the environmental performance of a building.

Energy Star is not a green building certification program, while LEED, BREEAM, and WELL are all green building certification programs.

Resilient building, adaptive building, and sustainable building are all terms for buildings that are designed to be resilient to the effects of climate change.

Building on unstable ground is not a way to make a building more resilient to the effects of climate change, while using flood-resistant materials, installing solar panels, and using energy-efficient appliances are all ways to make a building more resilient to the effects of climate change.

Climate adaptation, climate resilience, and climate mitigation are all terms for the process of preparing a building for the effects of climate change.

Increasing energy consumption is not a way to mitigate the effects of climate change in buildings, while using renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency, and planting trees around buildings are all ways to mitigate the effects of climate change in buildings.
