Celebrating National Green Building Day
Thank you to all sustainable builders, industry partners and municipalities who celebrated National Green Building Day this year! We look forward to celebrating next year on Wednesday, June 2, 2027—stay tuned for updates.
Welcome to the National Green Building Day Resource Page. The place for you to download the resources you need to Celebrate Sustainability with your team and your social network.
This week is National Environment Week, and in parallel, Built Green Canada encourages the building sector and municipalities to recognize the first Wednesday of June as National Green Building Day. We are working to raise awareness and support for sustainable building practices—recognizing industry leaders who are already doing so and encouraging others who aren’t as far along.
Thank you for your support!

Why Sustainability Matters
The green building community is a network producing smarter, more responsible and healthier homes: for the environment and for the homeowner. Sustainable building includes energy improvements, materials and methods, indoor air quality, water conservation, waste management, occupant health, and more. It’s aimed at meeting our needs without harming future generations by minimizing negative impacts, including carbon emissions, on the environment throughout a building's lifecycle.
Builders producing these homes are leaders offering healthier homes, increased durability and a lower environmental impact—plus they’re affordable with reduced operating costs, rebate eligibility, improved resale value, and more.
Together, let’s celebrate the meaningful efforts of sustainable builders and all those who support them!
