@Daijamonet Cook the easiest thing to do is make sure the building is properly sealed. This is done by installing the correct insulation and at least double pane windows. Insulation is key to have an efficient building. Then the proper mechanical unit can be installed, energy efficient lighting, and EPA watersense plumbing fixture. You can then look at using sustainable and local materials.
