Sustainable Building – Our Building Future
Partner Linda LaCroix presented "Sustainable Building - Our Building Future" to attendees of the 2012 HBRA-SV Home Show, held March 24th at Rutland's Spartan Arena. The seminar explores our understanding of sustainability, and what it means to consumers. As the percentage of people interested in sustainability when considering building or renovation/restoration projects grows, so does the confusion surrounding the meaning, methods, and science behind sustainable practice. When asked the question, "What does sustainability mean to you?", respondents give myriad answers that tend to focus on specific aspects of the sustainable concept that are related to their unique worldview, motivations, and preconceptions. This seminar looks at what sustainability really means, in both the global sense, and specifically with respect to sustainable building.
