I agree Zenobia, I think the main issue right now is to have a sensible idea of what sustainability means. Many people in and out of the profession feel that sustainable architecture is LEED certified. While I think LEED is doing some good things, I also think that the most important issues we face are in our individual lifestyles, if we can change that, then our job becomes much easier.
