Building 'green' needs to start at county level

In tearing down the local library, why wasn’t any of the old building recycled? They tore it down in three days and all went to the county landfills.

When are we going to get serious about building green? It needs to start at the county level.

We missed a perfect opportunity in tearing down this library to start building green.

I would hope that in building the new library some consideration will be given for our environment.
