Five articles i am thinking of using to develop my page:


1. https://www.dropbox.com/home/environmental%20economics%20-%20shared/readings?preview=DS+6.3+-+environmentally+sustainable.pdf

2. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/09/150908141144.htm

3. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/08/150826135724.htm

I will be editing the "Material Efficiency" stub this semester. It can be found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_efficiency.


Running bibliography:

https://www.scribd.com/doc/39812178/MATERIAL-EFFICIENCY-AND-COST-EFFECTIVENESS Describes sandwich constructions in regards to building with materials that weigh less, are more thick or thin compared to other materials, and provide more stiffness or strength in a building.

http://www.gdrc.org/uem/waste/material-efficiency.html "Material efficiency strategies include, for example, products that last longer, remanufacturing and modular manufacturing, reuse and recycling of product components, using less material in product designs, or redesigning manufacturing processes to use less energy, less water or less raw materials. It can also include replacement of scarce and expensive elements, notably those critical for energy applications."-from article.

http://home.howstuffworks.com/home-improvement/construction/green/10-cutting-edge-building-materials.htm#page=0 Lists 10 new building materials that either save energy in the production process compared to a similar material, provide better insulation for a building, use recycled materials instead of taking more from the environment, a combination of these reasons or more reasons.
