STRACT
Global warming is a serious problem facing the world today as well as
the world in the future if left unchecked. In order to stop or avert this
problem, our today’s society must change her ways, by learning how
to alter what they do or use in order to be less harmful to the
environment. Making our buildings and general structural facilities
“green” would greatly impact this problem. There are many ways for
this to be done and more ways are being developed rapidly. As these
new developments arise, the cost reward for green building becomes
more logical for the consumer/occupant. Thomas Hartman, a heating,
piping and air conditioning specialist stated that "a worldwide scientific
consensus has established some potentially catastrophic changes in
climate as a result of human contributions to greenhouse-gas
emissions which are likely within the next century if the current growth
in emissions is not reversed" (Hartman).Thus, in order for greenhouse
gas emissions as well as other harmful pollutants to be reduced, a
great change must be made in the way structures are constructed.
Hence, the need for GREEN or environmentally friendly, building
construction is becoming very imperative and should be adopted
without delay.
