NCKU Trends of Green Building Forum Discussed Blue Economy

January 17, 2011 - Imagine 100 innovations that could generate 100 million jobs over the next decade. As Y. S. Sun Green Building Research Center officially inaugurated, the Trends of Green Building Forum, organized by Delta Electronics Foundation, Delta Electronics, Inc., National Cheng Kung University, and NCKU Research and Development Foundation, was held in the conference hall of the green building, inviting internationally renowned entrepreneur Gaunter Pauli to discuss the Blue Economy, a new concept which uses existing resources to bring more values.

Renowned entrepreneur Gunter Pauli has launched a new approach to economics, the Blue Economy, which values child care and emphasizes regeneration, advocating that human beings should follow the example of organisms in using recycled materials, without leaving any waste or causing energy loss, to truly implement sustainable development.

Gunter Pauli pointed out, even though Green Economy is environmentally-friendly, enterprises need to invest more and consumers have to spend more, and the results are not as expected; however, the Blue Economy not only values child care, but it also emphasizes regeneration, hoping that the ecosystem can maintain the path of evolution for all living things to adjust and benefit one another. {continued}
