Craig Unger, and Nancy Goshow for their guidance in
this subject. Thanks very much. And thanks to the
directors for teeing up this piece of presentation
and opportunity to speak with you about the subject
matter.
Yes, Bill's support has been paramount for
the program, obviously. And the way we're
organized, I think, is very aligned with industry
and the fact that lead rating system revolves around
these five categories of concern. You'll see those
in the smaller bubbles there where we have specific
working groups on site, water, energy, indoor
environment materials, and then we also added the
research and development group. So we have
specialties and skill sets from the Department all
working together.
If you could, just back up one slide. I
just wanted to, our panel wanted to definitely focus
on one of the biggest drivers in the industry right
now is the discussion of carbon. Carbon foot
printing, carbon trading, and can you get carbon
neutral. And so I wanted to tee that up for all of
us to discuss a little bit and first wanted to just
let you know that there is really a three-pronged
approach or three-step approach when you're talking
