Green Building Law Potpourri
There are three notable articles on various sites around the blogosphere addressing green building legal issues--
1. Greening of the Bailout Bill--There was a great article over at Earth2Tech (I love those guys) on the greening of the financial bailout--http://earth2tech.com/2008/10/01/senate-passes-greener-financial-bailout/
2. Will Cap-and-trade work--Interesting perspective that cap-and-trade won't work to curb greenhouse gases soon enough over the at Green Skeptic http://greenskeptic.blogspot.com/2008/10/steve-rayner-dear-mr-president-deal.html
3. Southern Builders v. Shaw Development series on Green Building Law Update--Chris Cheathem has a nice series on the Southern Builders v. Shaw Development case in which Shaw Development, L.L.C. (Shaw Development) filed a counter-complaint against Southern Builders, Inc. (Southern Builders) in the Circuit Court of Somerset County, Maryland arising from, in part, the projects failure to achieve LEED Silver certification. http://www.greenbuildinglawupdate.com/2008/10/articles/legal-developments/southern-builders-v-shaw-development-the-most-important-part/
What does all of this mean? A lot of legal action--litigation, corporate and regulatory work--ahead.
