Smart buildings are the way of the future and can help save mankind from doing itself in!

From one of my favorite Americans.
"If success or failure of this planet and of human beings depended on how I am and what I do. How would I be? What I would do? Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all the wrong reasons, Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting. We allow them to disperse because we've been ignorant of their value. We are called to be architects of the future, not its victims. Everything you've learned in school as "obvious" becomes less and less obvious as you begin to study the universe. For example, there are no solids in the universe. There's not even a suggestion of a solid. There are no absolute continuums. There are no surfaces. There are no straight lines."
R. Buckminster Fuller
US architect & engineer (1895 - 1983)

Is this topic not controvertial enough? Lots of diggs, few comments. - spikeyone, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2For the large companies' wallets?
