comment
I have heard that environment pollution is increasing and nature could be collapsed in the near future.
actually, I don't know environment pollution directly. but I feel afraid and anxiety about environment.
so green building gives me hope. buildings are close things to people. because people spend most of time in the buildings. if we construct green buildings continuously, we will save more resources and preseve nature.
