Green interiors
This document discusses green and sustainable interior design. It emphasizes using natural materials that are renewable, recycled, or biodegradable. Examples include wood, stone, jute and wool flooring and carpets. Eco-friendly paints with low or zero VOCs are recommended. The document also highlights the importance of energy and water conservation through features like daylighting, efficient HVAC and plumbing systems. Construction should utilize recycled materials and minimize waste. Overall the goal is to reduce environmental impact and respect the planet for future generations.

- #39 LED Lighting Lightbulbs have changed quite a bit lately. Compact fluorescent lamps were introduced as highly efficient alternatives to traditional bulbs before 100, 75, 60 and 40-watt incandescent light bulbs are phased out of production by 2014.. The good news is that the bulb is so efficient that if every 60-watt incandescent in the country were replaced, $3.9 billion and 20 million metric tons of carbon emissions would be saved in one year.
