Green Building

Good numbers for green construction! The US Green Building Council (USGBC) and Booze Allen Hamilton issued a report saying 7.9 million us green jobs will be boosting our economy over the next four (4) years.
Compared to 2000-2008′s numbers which saved/created 2.4 million jobs which generated $123 billion in wages. I hope USGBC succeeds in making ‘Green Building’ obsolete for a much better and cleaner tomorrow for future generations.
