The wrong environmental standards of USA

Created by H.P. on November 22, 2014

To build a building on an area which grow grass bush tree we have to destroy the plants . After finishing , we never replant the same kind of these destroyed plants AT OTHERS PLACES . In reality , we get LEED certificate of Green Buildings ISO 14000 Environmental Management certificate or meet US EPA environmental standards even we never replant destroyed plants . Our environmental standards were wrong ,focus on air, water , energy & forget destroyed plants . Ex : to build a build we have to destroy 100 trees which can absorb 100 lbs CO2 , if we don't replant 100 trees , we lost 100 trees & we decrease CO2 sequestration ability of our country 100lbs . Every thing we build got this issue . Image : https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_c7teYrGH_6Ry03RWhwR0RpYUU/edit . Pls officially talk about
