Good words

It is difficult to come to any other conclusion than advanced energy will be a multitrillion dollar global industry within the space of a few decades, one which needs now to be invented largely from scratch. With its manufacturing heritage and materials excellence, Ohio can become a global hub of technology and business expertise in advanced energy. No place in the world is necessarily poised to dominate all forms of advanced energy, and Ohio can effectively compete to claim a major place at the advanced energy table. Thus, advanced energy can be the vehicle by which Ohio can reclaim the economic leadership it had achieved in the early 20th Century and has since lost.

Transportation

It’s time we built a high-speed rail system connecting Cleveland-Columbus-Cincinnati. It’s time we fund our transit systems to be strong competitors to the car. It’s time we invested in Complete Streets (like the Euclid Corridor). It’s time we fixed our potholes. It’s time we stopped building new highways to nowhere. It’s time we had a real conversation about investing in a transportation system that recognizes climate change, peak oil, and sustainable solutions.

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.
