Quotes:    “My goal is to be part of this movement to make every building green.”   “What’s changing is the technology to extract the energy source and deliver it to the end user.”   “Usually, these things are done by builders who have the foresight and the innovative steam, let’s call it, to go the extra mile and explore what’s coming around the corner.”   “Progressive developers are exploring ways of bringing in new models.”   “It’s no longer about the needs, it’s about the want.”   “Commercial buildings and office buildings are usually relatively easier to adopt these standards.”   “We’ve made big strides.”   “The challenge with technology is that when you start talking about it, by the time we’re done, it’s already dated.”   “Prop-tech is becoming a major area of focus for investors.”   “I think that it’s the way that we need to be going.”   Links:   30 Minutes to Wealth homepage: https://www.30minutestowealth.com/
