Not surprising but unfortunate.

This appears to be a decision made at the executive level, rather than a consensus decision. I couldn't help but note the IPCC report issued the day after the USGBC press release. Are we losing focus on climate issues because the market is not ready for EPDs, etc? USGBC should immediately ballot an update to the energy standard used by v3. There is no reason to keep letting new LEED projects use an energy standard that will be three iterations old when v3 is finally phased out.

YES! This shouldn't wait. LEED keeps getting more and more behind on the energy standard.
