Go green animation'Green' topics can be found in magazines, newspapers, websites, talk radio, television commercials, talking heads on CNN/Fox, politicians, the U.S. Government...the whole world is talking green. Saving the environment once meant tossing our old newspapers in the recycle bin, but now building owners are being faced with a much more radical view of what it means to be 'Green'. Property Managers are being pressured by building owners to 'think green'. Building Consultants, like myself are being pressured by property managers to 'think green'. I in turn pressure my vendors to provide 'Green' products...and so on and so on.
Energy costs will continue to rise, oil prices have recently hit the $100 dollar per barrel and the U.S. Government is handing out tax incentives for those who can dramatically cut utilities. Now more than ever has saving the environment also meant saving money. If green building research is on your agenda for 2008, well then you are in luck. In this edition of Mechanical Matters, I will touch ever so briefly on why 'Going Green' is important and share with you several sources of green research that I found helpful when composing this article.
I agree with this. Green building itself is helping a lot in the construction of building as it is not only helping to construct a safe and clean building but, is also helping to reduce the use of energy. Now a days, many firms like logical green institute are providing the service of green building consulting in South Florida.
