阅读下面的短文 根据文章后所给的题目进行简答.

    These days a green building means more than just the color of the paint. Green building can also
refer to environmentally friendly houses factories and offices.
    Green building means "reducing the impact(影响)of the building on the land" Taryn Holowka of
the U.S. Green Building Council in Washington D. C. said.
    According to Holoeka building account for 65 percent of total U.S. electricity use.
    Bur green building can reduce energy and water use. Also the buildings are often located near public
transportation such as buses and subways ______________________________________.That
could be good for the environment because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution. Green buildings
are often built on developed land so that the buildings don't destroy forest.
   Marty Dettling is project manger for a building that put these ideas into action. The Solaire has been
called the country's first green high-rise building. According to Dettling "We've reduced our energy use
by one-third and our water by 50 percent."
   T he Solaire cuts energy in past by using solar power. "On the face of the building we have solar
panels which change the sun's energy into electricity " Dettling explained.
   The Solaria also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room. In addition the
building has lots of windows allowing people to use the sun for light during the day. The Solaire cuts
water reusing it.
   Nor everyone is eager to move into a green building however. Some people think that things like
solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources. Anyhow Holowka said "It's going
to be big.
