Description
Deep green building would look at how construction contributes to the root causes of ecological collapse, toxic degradation, global warming and peak oil. Then it would design communities so that people could live comfortably and securely while having the least impact on the environment. The construction of homes would flow from the redesign of communities. In contrast, shallow green building ignores communities. It views homes as stand-alone objects having no connection to work, shopping, recreation and the many other facets of human life. Shallow green thinking accepts houses pretty much as they are and makes them "green" by adding eco-fads to them.
