Everyone remembers the food pyramid from grammar school right? The Green Building Advisor now has an Energy Efficiency Pyramid. I found this interesting pyramid on Jetson Green’s blog that I mentioned yesterday here.

Here is the pyramid:

The conservation pyramid has 10 levels that, as you climb from the bottom, become increasingly more expensive and complex. As a point of interest, two of the most popular areas to get government money show up at the top, while the bottom level is just now being targeted by the proposed HOMESTAR program.

The pyramid is designed for homes, but it is a great look for commercial properties as well.
