LEED Green Associate Practice Test

The correct choice focuses on certification that ensures responsible sourcing of wood products, which is critical for the Materials and Resources (MR) credit in LEED for building product disclosure and optimization. The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification indicates that the wood products have been sourced from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits. This certification aligns with the LEED framework's goal of promoting sustainable materials that reduce the impact on the environment and support sustainable practices in forestry.

Other certifications mentioned, such as LEED certified or Energy Star certified, pertain to overall building compliance and energy efficiency rather than specifically addressing the sourcing of raw materials. Cradle to Cradle certification focuses on product life cycles and sustainability but does not specifically target wood product sourcing like FSC certification does. Thus, FSC certified is the designated requirement for fulfilling the MR credit regarding wood products in LEED.
