Oct. 18, 2004: Survey Says Green Building Activity Expected To Rise
NEW YORK - In the next three years, 93 percent of building executives working with green buildings expect their green workload to rise, according to a survey by Turner Construction Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Turner Corp., a leading general builder.
The survey notes that more than half (51 percent) of executives anticipated substantial increases in their green building activities while another 42 percent expected these activities to increase somewhat. Even among executives not currently working with green buildings, nearly one-third (30 percent) thought it was very or extremely likely that their organization would work on a green project in the next three years. The survey also found that 88 percent of executives currently involved with green buildings have seen their activities with green buildings increase during the last three years, and nearly 40 percent have seen green activity increase substantially during that period.
