Features of Green Buildings
Green buildings contain many features that help protect the environment and that use resources efficiently. Planners take care not to build on ecologically sensitive land, such as wetlands. Instead, they build on previously developed land while also reducing the space used for parking lots. Some green buildings have green roofs, or roofs that are covered with trees and other plants, and use natural landscaping techniques on their grounds. Some buildings use natural lighting—with window blinds when needed to reduce glare—and natural ventilation. These buildings are often situated to make the best use of sunlight and wind. Often, green buildings are surrounded by mature trees. Green buildings usually incorporate low-maintenance materials and energy-saving technologies. Builders choose construction materials, furniture, paint, and carpeting that have low levels of off-gassing, which is the release of volatile organic compounds, known as VOCs.
Environmental, Economic, and Community Benefits of Green Buildings
The environmental and economic benefits of green buildings are enormous. Green roofs cool buildings, filter rainwater, and reduce stormwater runoff. They also help reduce the urban heat island effect. This effect occurs when an urban area is much warmer than surrounding areas because of human activities, such as covering land with concrete and asphalt for parking lots. Natural lighting and ventilation reduce reliance on artificial lighting and heating/cooling systems. Buildings that have green roofs and that use natural lighting and ventilation use less energy, which reduces air pollution. Natural landscaping techniques reduce water use. This conserves clean water and reduces the amount of waste products and chemicals (such as pesticides) that enter nearby bodies of water.
The interior of a building with skylights.
This building has reduced energy costs because it incorporates natural lighting.
Green buildings incorporate fewer materials and use materials that have fewer embodied environmental effects. These materials caused the least amount of ecological harm when they were harvested and manufactured. Companies that “build green” recycle during the building process. They also burn fewer fossil fuels while constructing the building, which reduces all types of pollution. Structures surrounded by trees are shaded from excessive summer heat and insulated from winter cold. Thus, they use less electricity for heating and cooling. Fewer fossil fuels are burned, and fewer pollutants such as carbon dioxide are released into the atmosphere. When buildings incorporate materials that have low levels of off-gassing, the environment is better protected from VOCs.
Buildings that are “green” also have reduced operating costs. In other words, they spend less on electricity, water, trash, landscaping, and other utilities and services. These buildings can save an average of 20 to 50 percent over buildings that are not “green.” Studies have shown that people who work in green buildings are happier and healthier. This affects companies’ bottom lines, because happy workers are more productive.
The benefits of green buildings have convinced many architects and construction companies to “go green” in order to protect the environment, save money, reduce pollution, and increase human health and happiness. Green building is a trend that is here to stay.
Answer: Drug addiction is a chronic disease characterized by compulsive, or uncontrollable, drug seeking and use despite harmful consequences and changes in the brain, which can be long-lasting. These changes in the brain can lead to the harmful behaviors seen in people who use drugs. Drug addiction is also a relapsing disease. Relapse is the return to drug use after an attempt to stop. The path to drug addiction begins with the voluntary act of taking drugs. But over time, a person's ability to choose not to do so becomes compromised. Seeking and taking the drug becomes compulsive. This is mostly due to the effects of long-term drug exposure on brain function. Addiction affects parts of the brain involved in reward and motivation, learning and memory, and control over behavior. Addiction is a disease that affects both the brain and behavior. Medications and devices can help suppress withdrawal symptoms during detoxification. Detoxification is not in itself "treatment," but only the first step in the process. Patients who do not receive any further treatment after detoxification usually resume their drug use. One study of treatment facilities found that medications were used in almost 80 percent of detoxifications (SAMHSA, 2014). In November 2017, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted a new indication to an electronic stimulation device, NSS-2 Bridge, for use in helping reduce opioid withdrawal symptoms. This device is placed behind the ear and sends electrical pulses to stimulate certain brain nerves. Patients can use medications to help re-establish normal brain function and decrease cravings. Medications are available for the treatment of opioid (heroin, prescription pain relievers), tobacco (nicotine), and alcohol addiction. Scientists are developing other medications to treat stimulant (cocaine, methamphetamine) and cannabis (marijuana) addiction. People who use more than one drug, which is very common, need treatment for all of the substances they use.

We know that individuals become frustrated and stressed in times like the corona virus that we are currently going
through now. Some individuals will increase their use of tobacco, alcohol, or illegal drugs to deal with their frustrations
and stress. Your assignment is a 150-word essay to describe the effects the corona virus has on these behaviors, and how
they affect families and/or society. Your essay must include a web-based site that you must identify to me.
The Corona Virus is making everybody worried. How do we know this? It quite easy to tell. Everyone is panic buying. Not to mention, it is stopping us from going on a walk on a daily basis. Its unhealthy. Family may not live next to eachother, yet this virus is preventing us to go visit us. We cant go out and play with put friends. Not to mention more people may become even more lazy with this going on.
The corona virus is making everybody frightened. Not to mention everyone is trying to travel to where it isnt at. More people are sitting around, eating, and playing video games. Its preventing us children to travel, play sports, or even hang with eachother.
It also stops us from going to restaurants. We stop going near people because we think we might catch the virus.
We stop hanging out with our friends. We don't go to families houses anymore. Everyone's just staying put and stay locked up in their house. The children can't even go anywhere since were not able to go to the store. Its not really fair. I'm really hopeful it'll end soon.

D) 1. Find a place to serve the breakfast. 2. Make pancakes. 3. Set a price for tickets. 4. Sell tickets.
PLEASE HELP! I NEED ANSWERS!
Answer:
B
Explanation:
You have to find a place to serve breakfast/a location days, weeks, or even months ahead. This leaves only B and D as options.
Next, you must set a price for tickets before you sell the tickets. This still leave B and D.
Next, you have to sell tickets before you make pancakes, because pancakes need to be fresh, and not made in advance. You can sell tickets before an event, but not after.
Think about a concert. You cannot perform and then sell the concert tickets. You have to sell them before the event.
