Quoting a 2000 assessment, he notes that, "At present, the building industry represents the largest consumer of material and energy resources of all the economic sectors in developed countries."
"I love the concept of One Planet Living because it takes a holistic approach, and it's quantifiable – how many planets of resources we're consuming to sustain our lifestyle. Ecological footprint analysis shows that, if everyone in the world lived like the average Australian, we would need five planets to sustain us.”"
...We look forward to their continued advancement," said Harrison. "The outstanding leadership of our firm is the foundation of our successes and our key to the future."
