At the Millennium Summit in September 2000 the largest gathering of world leaders in history adopted the UN Millennium Declaration, committing their nations to a new global partnership to reduce extreme poverty and setting out a series of time-bound targets, with a deadline of 2015, that have become known as the Millennium Development Goals. These targets have been reaffirmed in the recent UN summit on 20-22 September 2010 Therefore our work is an important direct contribution to two UN goals, at least !

7. What does it mean? We simply define an EIF “ Educational Intelligent Facility " as an ideal group of physical spaces, of technologies and equipments able to rapidly respond to a larger number of possible communal and dynamic "needs" of education and training for today and the future in an "open" relationship with other social activities available to the public. Intelligent Secondary School Italy 2010, 13.000 sqm, 1.500 students, by Giorgio Ponti and others Giorgio Ponti architect The “Educational Intelligent Facilities” Project (EIF)

9. Each Principle or Macro Index (MI) is subdivided in several Quality Index (QI) which make up a sort of Quality Matrix (QM) as the base of a self-assessment process Giorgio Ponti architect

19. We can identify different possible sources of local, alternative and suitable energy to assess and if it is possible to use, for instance: a) Centralised sources a1) Centralised eolic energy; a2) Centralised cogeneration (Hot water and electricity); a3) Energy from the waste b) Building performances b1) Eolic tools; b2) Solar panels and photovoltaic panels and surface; b3) Natural ventilation; b4) Heat pumps and geothermal energy; B5) Double skin; B6) Trombe walls; B7) Solar cooling B8) Natural shadows by planting or roof Giorgio Ponti architect 2. Zero carbon, pollution and waste

46. Giorgio Ponti architect What is LEED®? The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System™ encourages and accelerates global adoption of sustainable green building and development practices through the creation and implementation of universally understood and accepted tools and performance criteria. LEED is an internationally recognized green building certification system, providing third-party verification that a building or community was designed and built using strategies aimed at improving performance across all the metrics that matter most: energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved indoor environmental quality, and stewardship of resources and sensitivity to their impacts .
