I have some global thinking for your narrative today. Lots of thought and energy is going into making the world more sustainable. There are many ways people are working towards sustainability, and below is a graph showing which countries are doing the best job.
Here are my thoughts:
1—The US is doing a good job (I know, we have more to do).
2—Most of the world has to do better.
3—We still have some third world counties that are way behind.
Sustainability is a new requirement for many office spaces. Want to discuss which sustainable trends we’re seeing? Give me a call.
