Environmentally Friendly, Sustainable And Intelligent Buildings
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Unarguably, the world's energy demand has increased as a direct relation to the continual rise in global population. What this translates to in correlating statistics is that energy demands throughout the past half century have tripled, the global economy has quintupled and the world population increased twofold (Anonymous, 1997). In the not-too-distant future - with regard to history's timeline - there will come a point when fossil fuels will be depleted and humans will be forced to find alternative sources with which to power such equipment as heating/cooling units and myriad others that utilize conventional energy choices in order to create buildings that are highly efficient, comfortable, green, safe and secure environments. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Feng Shui (pronounced feng schway)
[ send me this paper ]
(20pp)For centuries, the Chinese have been using
Feng Shui to create harmonious living environments
that promote well-being (Rossbach 3). When man
aligns himself with the natural forces of good
energy he will experience good fortune, however,
if man aligns himself with disturbing energy, he
will be met with misfortune. The Chinese feel
that the art of Feng Shui goes beyond mystical
interior design, and is based on the placement of
fixtures as well as the necessity of fitting in
ones environment and the positive vibrations that
one receives as a result of that balance.
