without jeopardizing the needs
of
future generations."

In our belief
and commitment concerning current and future
generations, we have taken the opportunity
to join with others also dedicated in
keeping our earth green.

Al
Gore's speech on being awarded
The Nobel Peace Prize |

"We sometimes emphasize the danger in a
crisis without focusing on the
opportunities that are there. We should
feel a great sense of urgency because it
is the most dangerous crisis we have
ever faced, by far. But it also provides
us with opportunities to do a lot of
things we ought to be doing for other
reasons anyway. And to solve this crisis
we can develop a shared sense of moral
purpose."
Al Gore
"The scientists are virtually screaming
from the rooftops now. The debate is
over! There's no longer any debate in
the scientific community about this. But
the political systems around the world
have held this at arm's length because
it's an inconvenient truth, because they
don't want to accept that it's a moral
imperative."
Al Gore

"If you are not building
to LEED® certification and
US GREEN BUILT®
standards today, you are building
a
building that will be financially and
functionally
obsolete in eight to ten
years."
