Greenbuilding Law

MARCH 26, 2023

All electric building codes require that new construction and major renovations be powered by electricity rather than fossil fuels. The fossil fuel based economy has changed, but building codes didn’t. This means that buildings must use electric heating, cooling, and hot water systems instead of natural gas or oil.

Between 1996 and 2006, United Nations family planning spending declined 50 percent. Gleick, for his part, offers no reason to expect declining food production, much less famine. A better way, they said, was “much greater use of human labor and relatively less dependence on heavy machinery and manufactured fertilizers and pesticides.”

For example, the IPCC notes that France had 4,000 fewer deaths than anticipated from a heat wave in 2006 thanks to improved health care, an early-warning system and greater public consciousness in response to a deadly heat wave three years earlier. Short-term and focused subsidies and mandates may help accelerate technological innovation.

The fossil fuel sector has three markets, he explains electricity generation, which predominantly burns oil and gas; mobility or transportation, which relies on liquid fuels; and petrochemicals, 75% of which is plastics. The most important solution is to phase out the use of fossil fuels as quickly as possible.
