CLIMATE CHANGE
The following brief summaries indicate the atmosphere may be effected by the large scale reduction of living greenery around the world. Greenery has natural ways of cleaning the atmosphere of pollutions. This loss of living greenery has been accumulating over a long period of time Pleas refer to web site "living green roofs and carbon dioxide pollution. Living green roofs will assist reduce the affects of future urban developmentsCSIRO Global Carbon, Marine and Atmosphere Research,
Media release 27 November 2006. Briefly, "Carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere in 2005 is accelerating at an increasing rate. From 2000 to 2005, the growth rate of carbon dioxide emissions was more than two and half per cent per year, whereas in the 1990s it was less than one per cent per year". (Dr Michael Raupach.

19 April 2007. National Forum on Affordable Housing Conclusion. "Affordable housing is crucial to a country and its people. Without it, people are impoverished, families and communities erode, jobs lost, the economy weakened and the environment damaged.
The shortage of affordable housing has become a deep and significant problem throughout Australia. Vigorous and sustained action by governments at all levels, as well as within the business and non-profit sectors, is essential to reduce the ongoing economic and social damage that is being caused.
The net public expenditure required to generate substantial improvement is very small by comparison with the overall government revenue. It is also an essential and long overdue Investment in Australia's future prosperity and social cohesion." (Julian Disney, Director University of NSW.)Solutions for Affordable Housing and Climate Change issues facing Australia, can be solved with new concrete placement technology and existing known technology, Governments at all levels, Developers and Main Stream Builders assisting to introduce a wide range of cost effective and extremely high quality concrete housing in a low to mid price range providing solutions for:-
* Affordable housing issues facing Australia
* Reduce damage during extreme events,
* Introduce economical concrete water storage for residential housing
* Introduce residential roof top greenery to reduce the growth in climate issues
* Provide additional outdoor spaceThe above and more can be economically achieved during standard construction procedures with new and existing technology for in-situ concrete housing.
