Do you think a lot of sustainability? Do you care about future of our Earth? You should start. We will not have second chance to restore our earth and start all over again but with less loses. We live only once, and we want to live our full life safely and without scares. How do we do that in the world where there everything energy consuming and environment polluting. UBC is one of the main fighters for resource efficiency. In 2011 there were opening of The Centre for Interactive Research on Sustainability (CIRS). It’s truly unique and very important building for our society. It shows how humanity can use resources given by nature in a positive way.
“It’s designed to be net positive in four ways for the environment and three ways for human health.” said UBC Professor John Robinson in his interviue to The Globe and Mail
“CIRS is a multi-use space with facilities designed to encourage human interaction, explore new approaches and advance globally-significant sustainability research”.
I agree with Pr. Robinson, that all universities in the world, especially in Сanada, should do same types of researches and experemenеs with sustainability in terms of improvement our daily life.
From one point of view, It was probably cost project for UBC, but on the other hand it’ll safe a lot of university’s money in future. Moreover, this building will encourage other people, especially UBC’s future students in sustainability to think widely and watch in the world from different perspectives. Not only can we harm our planet, but also help it.
