... Public Works and Government Services Canada(PWGSC) in partnership with Environment Canada has initiated a process to ensure that environmental factors are taken into consideration during all project phases in the development of office space. The Green Office Building Plan(GOBP) has been developed in response to this need. The GOBP has been written to address primarily the needs of Renovation, Recapitalization and Fit-up projects, which make up the majority of the office space projects in which PWGSC is involved. When the process has been refined and tested, it will be applied to all federal office space projects in the future.  1, record 2, English, - Green%20Office%20Building%20Plan

Tapis vert, meaning literally a "green carpet", was first coined in the garden at Versailles in 1680 where André Le Nôtre used a mown grass strip punctuated by urns and statues to divide the main axis, the Allée Royale. This became a template for other grand schemes, including George Washington's plan for the landscaping of independent America's new capital. The term tapis vert has come to embrace a wider meaning, encompassing any area of lawn cut in a regular shape. It is also used to describe areas mown at various heights to produce patterns and it is here that the lawn could enjoy a degree of reinvention, assisted by advances in technology-most mowers can be adjusted by the flick of a lever to give various cutting heights. In areas of a modest size, rotary mowers would be ideal for this purpose.  2, record 3, English, - green%20carpet

The Advanced Houses Program, an initiative under Canada's Green Plan to reduce global warming, provides industry with the opportunity to develop and field test new products and technologies. Under the Advanced Houses Program, ten prototype homes, all winners of a national design competition, are being constructed across Canada. Each Advanced House is designed to minimize its impact on the external environment by consuming less than one-quarter the energy and one-half the water of a conventional canadian home and has a significantly better level of comfort and indoor air quality.  1, record 9, English, - Advanced%20Houses%20Program

Then, the word "warrior" (a word that already exists in the English language) has been added to the word "eco" by a hyphen. It conveys the idea of "fighting for something". Once the new word is formed (eco- + warrior), a new meaning emerges (one who fights against the destruction of the environment). Therefore, the neologism has been one of structure.
