Eco-tecture
Everybody should take a look at today's issue of The New York Times Magazine - the entire issue is devoted to "Eco-tecture," with numerous articles about green building. One, titled "Why Are They Greener than We Are?" discusses how Europe is best at designing green buildings. Another, called "The Accidental Environmentalist," is a profile of a Japanese architect who makes buildings (literally) out of paper. Anyway, the issue is chock-full of fascinating stuff.
