CR06

These three chapters from Cradle to Cradle were not what I expected when reading this book.  I was expecting a lot more talk of what materials are better to use in certian situations and why.  Instead it was a lot of talk about the environment in general.  It talks a lot about agriculture in the first chapter and why it needs to be done a certain way to keep a healthy environment.  I did not feel this was entirely neccesary to the book.  I did think chapter three was very interesting though.  I enjoyed the part where the authors talked about an environmentally friendly buidling made by people and one made by a cherry tree.  I thought this was a very interesting approach to the different ways you could design an efficient building.  I hope the rest of the book gets more into the actual design aspect of being environmentally friendly.
