Question

An engineer chooses to use a natural adhesive for a building project instead of a heavy-duty chemical glue that releases harmful fumes. This is an example of _____. A. efficiency in construction
B. cost-saving construction
C. resource shortages
D. green design
is somebody out there that can help

Answer 1

The correct option is D. Green design is a method of building that holds the view of minimizing the harmful effects of the building products used on humans and on the environment. Architecture designers who favor green design usually use building materials that are ecosystem-friendly, which will not affect the air, water and the environment generally in a negative way. 

Answer 2

This should be an example of a green design. His decision to avoid a toxic substance in favor of a benign natural adhesive definitely benefits the workers who would be exposed to the toxic fumes so improves their work environment.
