LBC Zero Carbon Limit Inquiry

I don’t know the research behind that, but 500 CO2e/m2 is a ridiculously high (lenient / easy) number to target, given the average typical building is somewhere around 400, and closer to 300 for low-rise and residential structures. 75 is the target a city in Canada set, at or below which one’s building permit fees were waived. Would love to hear from someone on the inside at LBC who helped to set that target, and what their rationale was.
