5.3.2.4.2. Future
There are several steps that RMZ Corp. can take to improve the transportation score in the coming years. In order to gain an additional point in Arc, it is necessary to reduce transportation emission levels by 10%. This can be achieved in two different ways. - The first of these would be to create more awareness around the importance of alternative transportation. This awareness campaign would include educating occupants about nearby alternative transportation options. - The second method would be to actively improve nearby infrastructure. By enhancing building and campus accessibility opportunities, it would be possible to further promote the use of more eco-friendly transportation.

5.3.2.3. Human Experience 5.3.2.3.1. Innovation When the project team conducted an initial full IEQ test of the space, they found that much of RMZ Ecoworld was not able to meet the TVOC thresholds set by Arc. This is a category that many LEED Projects struggle with in heavily polluted areas of the world, especially India. To rectify this problem, the project team prioritized infrastructure installation across the two million square foot site.

They introduced carbon filters, UV lamps, and photocatalytic oxidation units to the tenant spaces that most exceeded the maximum limit of TVOC levels. Upon retesting, the new infrastructure was found to have brought these spaces to TVOC levels that fell within the required thresholds for Arc.
