Hurricane Sandy

I know that this blog may seem repetitive at times, yet how else can one truly bring change but by educating as many as you can by repeating over and over again what change is needed! In this light;

Ice storm may fallow so please plane for the cold.

When it comes to the east coast states and the devastation there in, ask yourself, If building codes passed the test in these areas and was THEIR HOME also their shelter? Did no one die as a result of their home or structure? Was the infrastructure of their cities design to flow with nature so that it could endure natures natural flow? Did the so called Building Green buildings far well? Will their insurance cost stay the same? And finally, will the strain on our nature resources be unaffected?

If you answer, “NO” to any of the questions, then please read this blog thoroughly (that includes old post). For it is the belief of this author, that if these cities were built to flow with nature we would not see the devastation we see today. Sadly they are not! The foundation, walls, doors, windows, and roof are all built with a RESISTANCE RATING! And it is this RESISTANCE that creates so much devastation. Theory been, Natural disasters are natural, so one must build to FLOW with nature as to be a part of it and not against nature flow through resisting it! If one looks up this word “RESIST”, they will find that it means WAR or CONFLICT! Can we truly feel safe in our world when they would have us live and work in structures that are no longer our shelter and our infrastructures are designed and built to be at war with nature and her natural flow? I dare say not!

In conclusion, I send my prays to ALL whom were affected by this great storm, and it is my hope to bring building code change so that this will never happen again. 
The "Natural Disaster Environmental History Code" can save life, land, and liberty, and also reducing cost on insurance, natural resources, Local and Federal Government.
