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 for 20 years, we’ve been focusing on these materials 【C6】______ to the molecules, looking for ways to make them 【C7】______ for people and the planet.

Ultimately, 【C10】______ , our basic design strategy is focused not simply on being "less bad" but on creating 【C11】______ healthful materials that can be either safely returned to the soil 【C12】______ reused by industry again and again.

Look at it this way: No one 【C15】______ out to create a building that destroys the planet. But our current industrial systems are 【C16】______ causing these conditions, whether we like it or not. 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] 【C18】
