Environment News Service: "Amidst increasingly dire news about the economy and climate change, Architecture 2030 released good news that could help turn the US economic crisis around while dealing a much-needed blow to climate change. At the Good Jobs Green Jobs Conference in Pittsburgh, PA, Edward Mazria, founder of Architecture 2030, illustrated how a small investment of only $21.6 billion in the Building Sector would produce 216,000 permanent jobs and save 86.7 Million Metric Tons (MMT) of CO2 in a single year. This same amount invested each year for five years would net over one million permanent jobs and save 433.5 MMT."
