“We demonstrate that sustainability is an economic approach and that it is vital for the survival of society in the long-term,” said Plot.
Dr. Chayen, who himself built a sustainable ‘green’ home for himself and his family, says that Israel’s green Knesset has got other governments around the world interested. “We have heard from parliaments both in Africa and Europe, who are interested in implementing and cooperating with the Green Knesset Project,” Dr. Chayen told Tazpit News Agency.
“We have a number of international agreements of cooperation in green research signed with the parliaments of Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Albania and Romania,” Dr. Chayen told Tazpit.
“We promised and we came through – we are making the Knesset the greenest in the world. The second phase of the project as it is planned now will expand to other fields,” added Plot.
