Pitch

Focus on lost ecosystems of urban development . (Climate Colab ,I need Global option for my impact , regions option is not enough)


Description

Summary

To build a building on an area which grow grass , bush , tree we have to destroy the plants . After finishing , we never replant the same kind of these destroyed plants AT OTHERS PLACES . In reality , the environmental standard , LEED current version of all the countries on the world never force us to grow these plants again at others places . We can get LEED certificate of Green Buildings , ISO 14000 - Environmental Management certificate , industry certificate , agriculture certificate  , or meet US EPA environmental standards even we never replant destroyed plants . Our environmental standards were wrong , only focus on air , water , energy & forget destroyed plants , no nature conservation , no sustainability ( but in their minds , they misunderstand that they're protecting environment ) . Our policies about replant destroyed plants or reforestation , the accuracy can’t reach to each house , bridge , police station ,………. or positions of constructions have LEED , ISO 14000 certificate ,…… , NO NATURES CONSERVATION , no sustainability . If we solve this issue globally by planting destroyed plants , may be we can solve Climate Change , pls sign to stop this issue . How bad the wrong environmental standards damage our countries : 

When CO2 sequestration > CO2 emission at the Earth , after finishing all CO2 of Earth , it begin to decrease CO2 of atmosphere =>solve climate change . CO2 sequestration ability of lost ecosystems here are very important .Destroyed plants are our environment . We create environmental laws , green standards like ISO 14000 , LEED of Green Building to protect environment .  If environmental laws , green standards never force us to replant destroyed plants so when people have these certificate , they misunderstand about protecting environment

All Judges :  Mark Winterer , Tarek Rakha , Melissa Chan , Sara Hoverter , David Sittenfeld .

I'm a lonely man try to do a good thing to warn human . Can judges help me write about this issue ? Judges can write an article and send to a newspaper to warn human about how wrong LEED , ISO 14000 , industry certificate , agriculture certificate are . The more people know it , the more people sign it  .I wrote to newspaper about this issue but no one reply me because I'm not a scientist .


What are other key benefits?

May be we can solve climate change if we replant destroyed plants globally .

That's a failure , no nature conservation & sustainability , all forget to replant destroyed plants of buildings , roads , .....but still meet environmental standards of environmental agencies   , LEED , ISO 14000 , Global GAP  , ......certificate

Dear Judges :

2014 I joined all MIT Climate Colab contests just for warning people about this issue ,environmental standards , environmental certificates were wrong , only focus on air , water , energy & forget destroyed plants , sadly I lost 18 contests of  Climate Colab ( include Green Building & Building contests ) . Can judges help me , talk , write about this issue on your website or have a conversation with environmental agencies , Green Building Council , ISO organization , ....... They need to realize this issue . I work with this issue in 3 or 4 years but couldn't solve it because I’m alone . I need a help . Our policies about replant destroyed plants or reforestation , the accuracy can’t reach to each house , bridge , police station ,or positions of constructions have LEED , ISO 14000 certificate , NO NATURES CONSERVATION but meet environmental standards . I’m tired , sad & cried . Even I have a petition , but only have some signatures . Petitions can have hundreds thousand signatures which can change something because TV channel  , newspaper ,….. write about it so people know it & SIGN , but no one support me even I wrote to newspapers & told them this issue . Many newspaper have articles about green building , I wrote to them about this issue but no one reply me . Do you feel sad when next year I have to come back and join the contests again just for warning people  , because no one help, write about it . I DON’T WANT TO WIN , I ONLY WANT TO WARN PEOPLE ,SOMETHING , at least pls help me write about how wrong Green Building & ISO 14000 are . Now is 2015 & I wonder until I die , can I find a scientist help me write about this issue , I don't know . THANK YOU
