Members of the Plumbing Manufacturers
Institute discovered at their spring meeting that this whole green building
thing might be more complicated than advertised.
First,
manufacturers have to deal with the multitude of green building standards
issued by different groups. Then they have to figure out which products are
genuinely green, and which ones are “greenwash.” Finally are the technology
issues that have to be resolved in systems that contribute to sustainable
buildings such as graywater and rainwater harvesting.
