    The __________ provides for the legal protection of the ozone layer in the United States.

    • AHSRAE

    • Montreal Protocol

    • EPA Ozone Guidelines

    • Department of Energy

    Correct Answer
    A. Montreal Protocol
    Explanation
    The Montreal Protocol is an international treaty that was designed to protect the ozone layer by phasing out the production and consumption of substances that deplete it, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). While it is an international agreement, the United States has implemented the protocol into its domestic laws and regulations, providing legal protection for the ozone layer within the country. The other options listed, AHSRAE, EPA Ozone Guidelines, and Department of Energy, do not specifically address the legal protection of the ozone layer in the United States.

    Explanation
    The Triple-Bottom-Line framework is a concept that considers three main factors in business decision-making: People, Planet, and Profit. It emphasizes the importance of social, environmental, and economic sustainability.

    • LEED for New Construction

    • LEED for Core and Shell

    Correct Answer
    A. LEED for Commercial Interiors
    Explanation
    LEED for Commercial Interiors would be the best suited rating system for a tenant improvement project. This rating system specifically focuses on the interior fit-out of commercial spaces, making it the most appropriate choice for a project that involves renovating or improving the interior of a building for a tenant. LEED for New Construction, LEED for Existing Buildings: Operations and Maintenance, and LEED for Core and Shell are more suitable for different types of projects and do not specifically address the needs of a tenant improvement project.
