Video Rating: 4 / 5
Environmental Politics and Law (EVST 255) The lecture critiques the US Green Building Council’s (USGBC) certification system, LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). The criteria for being highly rated under LEED emphasize energy efficiency and minimizing waste, but do not prioritize environmental health and limiting use of dangerous plastics and chemicals. USGBC is a non-profit organization, not a government agency, and has employees of for-profit organizations on its board of directors. The lecture discusses the implications of having a non-profit organization run this system and be responsible for evaluating environmental quality in architecture and construction. 00:00 – Chapter 1.

I LIKE THE CONCEPT – THE BUILDING IN ITSELF, IS ALIVE. OTHER THAN FICUS, I AM ACTUALLY WONDERING WHAT OTHER TYPE OF SPECIES CAN BE USED. FOR YEARS, I ACTUALLY WONDERED IF I CAN DO THE SAME WITH IVY, WHICH IS FAST GROWING, BUT HAVE A BAD REPUTATION FOR DESTROYING WALLS (SOME PEOPLE ARGUE OTHERWISE). THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR UPLOADING THIS VIDEO.
@dumbnetworks Not necessarily, but it never looks even decent. The way he has his looks decent.

@libertyman0033 Amen.
Do my eyes deceive me? A white guy pulling off dreadlocks?

a really fantastic idea but as with a lot of other technologies that would benefit mankind i’ll hold back my excitement until such things are actually built.
on a sidenote: the description of this video should be changed, since the project is called “terREform”, not “terRAform”.
unfortunatley not till after most of the religious nuts have died, it would have been a benefit to slave them out to help build this idea,, too bad their extinction couldn’t be put to better use. Oh well better off without them I say.. once their fear and paranoid sense of civility is removed from the planet we can get on with our lives as it was meant to be, and free from manipulation of false ideas that support the perpetuance of money….. may they all persish soon…. all religions…
Nice Nice Video. I really loved your video. Youtube can be a great asset for you. If you need any help getting your video exposed, check out this site called tubeviews [dot net] It has really done wonders for me, I have built 3 Channels up with videos at top in position and this is my forth channel i’m going to working on.
God Bless You!
What a lovelly technic! It’s wonderfull how nature can be formed and disformed into our main need: sustainability. Nature is the way to solve the problems, let respect it.
