Green design/Build services help The Park School provide hands-on learning opportunity

There are those that oppose extra width on roads and bike trails for bicyclists because of the "environmental damage they do by increased impervious surface." Which is like opposing LED power indicator lights for "excessive" power drain while still using 100+ watt incandescent bulbs and driving a vehicle that gets less then 20mpg. Fix the bigger problems first! This article from Sustainable Stormwater Management highlights fixing a parking lot. This is a nice jester but why do we still build parking lots with absolutely no thought for the environment and no one is complaining about that?
