The study is due to be released by the end of this year. We’ll be sure and post the full results of the study and the survey methods used when that information is available. These numbers are preliminary results from the study announced at this year’s Greenbuild conference.

However, it is rather surprising that there were not more believers. This is a study concerning owners of “sustainable” properties who one would suspect are prone to be believers.

What we have is basically a press release. See this: “According to the study, tenants in sustainably managed buildings report increased productivity, satisfaction and health. Roughly 10% of tenant respondents have seen increased productivity, 94% of tenant managers registered higher employee satisfaction in green space and 83% of tenants believe their green space provides a healthier working environment.”

Sure would like to see the survey.
