    I recently visited the headquarters of one of our flagship building organisations.

    I was horrified as it was summer and the heating was blasting away and all the doors were open! ----- wasteful or what?

    The toilet facilities all had buckets under them to catch the drips.

    There was a disconnected gas pipe with no cap on it in full view and a tap near by to turn it on.

    No recycling bins just throw it all away.

    No evidence at all of anything green, ecologically friendly or and not that much evidence of good building practice.

    Is this place a Flagship or ship about to sink? If that is the flagship what hope for the rest of what gets built?

    Did you take some photos? I would have done, I frequently do as I always carry my camera.

    "No evidence at all of anything green, ecologically friendly or and not that much evidence of good building practice."

    I'm not going to tell you so you may as well stop asking. There can't be that many places with buckets under all the urinals to catch the drips though.
