Keeping Buildings Greener and Safer by Tiffany Hsieh, Mar 28, 2008 (6:24am)

S 506 creates federal standards for building “Green” buildings so that emissions from buildings (which account for 40% of all greenhouse gas emissions in the US) can be minimized. It also appropriates funds for schools and federal buildings for environmentally friendly improvements. It is a step in the direction of environmental responsibility.
This bill was signed into law and its school and federal building environmental health provisions were included in the Energy Independence and Security Act (HR 6).
