But today, thousands of people come to green building conferences, and the 【C2】______ that buildings can be good for people and the environment will be increasingly influential in years to 【C3】______ .

The "energy-efficient" sealed commercial buildings constructed after the 1970s energy crisis 【C5】______ indoor air quality problems caused by materials such as paint, wall covering and carpet.

So 【C17】______ of simply trying to reduce the damage, we are 【C18】______ a positive approach. We’re giving people high-quality, healthful products and an opportunity to make choices that have a 【C19】______ effect on the world. It’s not just the building industry, either. 【C20】______ cities are taking these environmentally positive approaches to design, planning and building. Portland, Seattle and Boston have said they want to be green cities. Chicago wants to be the greenest city in the world. [br] 【C17】
