Critical Climate Podcasts: Global Warming & Building Construction with Rick Carter

It’s New Year’s Eve, and time for the third installment in our series of daily podcasts about global warming, how we addressed it in 2007 and what trends we can expect in 2008.

Each podcast focuses on a single source of greenhouse gas emissions. Last week’s podcasts focused on electricity generation (Thursday) and transportation (Friday). Tomorrow’s topic is residential energy use.

Today, we’re talking about building construction with Rick Carter, a LEED accredited architect who is a board member with the local chapter of the U.S. Green Building Council. Carter explains some of the ambitious goals green builders adopted in 2007.
