Developing an eco-friendly stadium or arena appears to be at the forefront of almost every professional sports organization. I believe in the initial design/planning phases architects and facility planners must take notice in the direction which the sun sets and rises. One area of concern is the purpose of constructing the stadium and what is it’s intended use and for how long (Ammon‚ et. 2010) Also‚ if the organization is located in an extremely humid environment‚ I would most likely construct a

Topic 9 - The Carbon Cycle Aspects of the carbon cycle are similar to the hydrologic cycle because both are good examples of “Interactions between the systems". Textbook – topic not covered in text. http://www.windows2universe.org/earth/ The Carbon Cycle Neglecting the small amount of carbon (C) added to Earth by meteorite impacts‚ there is a fixed amount of carbon on Earth (~800‚000 billion tonnes). All living things are made of carbon but carbon is also a part of the ocean‚ air‚ and

Type of Eco Friendly Fabric • Modal Fabric • Hemp Fabric(大麻) • Tencel Fabric（天丝) • Milk protein fabric • Recycled Pet Fabric • Soybean Fabric Modal Fabric Modal fiber is a new kind of regenerated cellulose fiber produced by FCFC (Formosa Chemicals & fiber Corporation)‚ called Formotex fiber. Its key advantage is its high tensile strength. Compared with Viscose‚ Its Wet/dry Tenacity is 1.5 times higher. Due to the high quality of the fiber‚ the resultant yarn is also of high quality.
