Using Buildings To Create 'Cleaner' Economy

How can the buildings where we live and work contribute to a “cleaner” economy? A conference that focused on connecting companies and cities around this idea wrapped up Thursday in California.

Emily McLaughlin, director of the Urban Land Institute’s Greenprint Center for Building Performance, was among the speakers at the Verge 19 conference.

McLaughlin joined The Show to explain the challenges developers and builders have to make their buildings more sustainable.
