Report
If this is truly your philosophy: "Our goals is to use the latest technology in construction and materials so that the buildings we build reduce our carbon footprint, are environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing," then why on earth are you involved in financing a frac sand mine in Southern Utah? Our precious water source and clean air are at stake, not to mention it would be contributing to the disastrous effects of fracking throughout the U.S. I urge you to reconsider your involvement in this project.
