UN says 'architects can save the world'

"Buildings can play a key role in combating climate change," says the U.N. So wow, architects are cooler then Al Gore.

from the press release:
Achim Steiner, UN Under-Secretary General and UNEP Executive Director, said: " Energy efficiency, along with cleaner and renewable forms of energy generation, is one of the pillars upon which a de-carbonized world will stand or fall. The savings that can be made right now are potentially huge and the costs to implement them relatively low if sufficient numbers of governments, industries, businesses and consumers act".
