Kevin, long time no see.

Did you go abroad this summer?

No, but I just came back from Penghu.

I bought some postcards for you guys.

Here, pick one.

I like the one that has the bright blue sky and the unusual rocks.

Hey, what’s that building with all the square glass on it?

It’s a building which is known for its “green” design.

“Green” design? But its walls aren’t painted green.

Come on. “Green” means eco-friendly.

OK. What can green buildings do for the Earth?

Well... they can not only save people money but save the Earth’s natural resources.

Can you give me an example?

By using glass in an eco-friendly way, we can bring in sunlight to light up those green buildings.

So people who live in these buildings use less power and still can live a comfortable life.

Being eco-friendly is a win-win way to go.
