Benefits of Green Design
by Ferdine, Mar 18, 2008
Some commentators argue that green design is Utopian and unrealistic. However, green buildings make economic sense. They cost more to build than conventional buildings, but the fact that green buildings are energy efficient means that they tend to recover the extra costs in the first ten years. Green design is not Utopian; it can be highly practical and is financially beneficial.
