Most Environment-friendly building strategies

Transparence

Design buildings to allow maximum daylight, or coloring roofs in lighter shades are some of the best strategies to build an Eco-friendly building.

What do you have to say?

Honestly?  At this point, I'm so tired of all the eco/green/sustainable building bullshit hypocrisy that I'm inclined to say, "Fuck the environment.  I'm an architect!" 

Deal with it, yo!

I agree with Janosh and will go further, no building at all.

Agree with some comments... Want to really be environmentally friendly and not just a poser? stop fucking building.. period.  Most of us live on excess... There is more than enough housing and architecture to meet everyone's needs.  But no, we all just want more, want bigger, want newer whatever.
