I was casually going about my business gathering news on green building for greenlaw and came across this bit on LEED from Fox news. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,295960,00.html
There...really...are...no...words. It is another example of Fox's well documented attack on environmental causes. http://action.sierraclub.org/site/MessageViewer?em_id=24521.0
Essentially, Fox argues that because LEED standards have been proposed as part of the House Energy bill and the GSA has mandated that all new construction projects and substantial renovations must be LEED certified that "Building green" soon may be more about stealthily raking in cash from taxpayers than constructing "eco-friendly" buildings, if the U.S. Green Building Council, or USGBC, has its way in Congress."
That's right--green building is a conspiracy by the USGBC to bilk taxpayers of their money. Only the folks over at Fox could come up with this stuff.
