The environmental impact of building materials in the North American building industry
The goal in selecting environmentally-sound building products is to maximize use to recycled materials, and to ensure that, mining, harvesting and extracting raw materials does not pose a threat to existing resources of endangered species. The amount of energy that goes into the material at every stage of its life-cycle should be minimized, as should the amount of waste generated.
