The LEED rating systems reference the standards of various organizations that are relevant to green building design, construction, and operation. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) is one of these organizations, and its standards cover topics such as fire safety, electrical safety, emergency power systems, and fire suppression systems. The LEED rating systems reference the NFPA standards in several credits and prerequisites, such as Minimum Energy Performance, Minimum Indoor Air Quality Performance, and Environmental Tobacco Smoke Control.

Hold on, are we sure the LEED rating systems even exist? Maybe this is just a trick question to see if we're paying attention. What is this, the Bermuda Triangle of building standards?

The American Institute of Architects (AIA) makes sense, since they're a key player in sustainable design. But I'm pretty sure ISO is the correct answer here.

Meeting Professionals International (MP!) standards? That's a bit of a stretch for a LEED question, don't you think? Might as well ask about the International Brotherhood of Magicians.

Hmm, I think the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards would be relevant for LEED as well. Safety first, you know?

The LEED rating systems reference standards from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). That's the obvious choice here.
