Material Connexion's Green Construction Material of The Year 2011.
I have always been interested in the "green movement". Eventually, I hope to make environmentally efficient buildings my concentration. Here is a link talking about the "green material of the year". New materials and technologies are constantly being created to make the over-all building/construction/design process not only more efficient but also more eco-friendly. I think it's important for us to keep up with these innovative materials and to keep them in mind when working on our current projects.

Using the Magnesium silicates would prevent the carbonation of the cement as well. You'd see far less cracked and crumbling curbs. The only problem is that the magnesium is about a million times more expensive. I guess you can't have your cake and eat it too...
