Good words

We often describe the triple bottom line -- society, economy, and environment -- as three intersecting circles of equal size. This is nonsense. The reality is that the largest circle should represent the biosphere. Within that, we have 30 million species, including us, that depend on it. Within the biosphere circle should be a much smaller circle, which is human society, and within that should be an even smaller circle, the economy. Neither of the inner circles should grow large enough to intersect with the bigger ones, but that's what's happening now as human societies and the economy hit their limits.

Turner Construction Company will be hosting the Corporate Roundtable presentation on "Sustainability in Construction" at the Hanna Theatre on Friday, March 12, 2010.

As the largest construction management firm in the United States and the number one green builder (Engineering News Record, 2009), Turner has been involved in the sustainable design and construction community from its onset by promoting and implementing environmentally sensitive design and construction practices. Ed Paparone, Business Manager at Turner, will describe how sustainability can be incorporated into every stage of construction from design to close-out. He will also highlight local projects that are pursuing LEED Certification and will feature the renovation of the Hanna Theatre and explain the sustainable construction techniques used to restore the building.

RSVP here by March 10.
