The plan-Building a Green Future-outlines measures designed to stimulate demand for green construction projects, boost infrastructure capacity, improve building efficiency and green construction practices.聽 It openly addresses how the places where we live, work, play and travel impact the natural environment; and it gives credit to industry and other groups for their efforts to reduce those impacts.聽 The plan offers recommendations to for a renewed investment in our infrastructure-making it greener and safer.聽 It provides some common sense ways that contractors can help, such as recycling waste and reducing emissions from equipment; and it also addresses how policymakers can support those efforts instead of setting up roadblocks.
"You can't wish for a green future-you have to build it." 澳门六合彩开奖预测 maintains that construction and renovation ultimately are the most immediate and effective ways to improve the built environment.聽 This plan will guide policymakers, educate the public and provide 澳门六合彩开奖预测 members with a tool they can use to develop an environmental strategy for their firm.
澳门六合彩开奖预测 of America and the 澳门六合彩开奖预测 of Washington unveiled the plan after a tour of a construction site for a green building in Seattle.聽 The new structure will serve as local construction firm McKinstry's incubator space for start-up green construction technology firms.聽 Citing that company's recent successes, David D'Hondt (executive vice president, 澳门六合彩开奖预测 of Washington) said that while the plan would deliver significant environmental benefits, it also would provide new opportunities for the nation's hard-hit construction firms.
