On March 8, 2009 I came across an article on BBC news. This article goes over how Great Britain has a plan to better thier environment by cutting the amount of waste. They plan to train people so they can create efficient buildings. They hope to have over 1,000 jobs open for thos individuals they plan to train. They have monthly budget and our trying to move to a low-carbon economy.
My reaction to the article was one of curiosity. I wondered how that would work in the U.S. in some ways I feel as though it would help the economy giving the people jobs but I know how much debt we are in now so getting this started would be a difficult task. How well will this work out in the end? Will all these homes that are more environmetally friendly really make things more sustainable? If so shouldn't that be what everyone shoots for?
