Soil corridors. If there is not room above ground to implement a green corridor, UBC [University of British Columbia] could experiment with underground corridors that connect existing soft landscapes belowground. Assuming space is available below ground, then soil corridors could help conserve soil on campus and also may create more room for tree roots and mycorrhizal fungi to grow.... By proposing soil corridors as a method to increase ecological connectivity on campus, soils are more likely to be conserved if their importance for ecological connectivity and mycorrhizae is recognized and valued. 2, record 1, English, - soil%20corridor

Heat-absorbing plate glass. This glass is made by adding ingredients to the mix used in making regular plate so that the finished product is pale bluish green or gray. Because of its chemical composition, this glass absorbs a significant percentage of the sun's radiant energy, thus reducing the build-up of heat within the building.... glare and brightness in the room are reduced.

Cupping is one of the coffee tasting techniques used by cuppers to evaluate coffee aroma and the flavor profile of a coffee.... In a coffee cupping session, the table is usually set up with 6 to 10 cups per coffee. These are fashioned in a triangular manner. At the top of this triangle you should place a sample of the roasted coffee and a sample of the green coffee. In the center of the table place a cup of room temperature water and an empty cup containing the cupping spoons. Cover both the green sample and roasted sample until the cupping session is over and the coffee aroma, fragrance, and flavor profile have been documented. After this time, the coffee samples could be uncovered and additional comments can be written based on appearance. This method will help reduce the common "eye cupping" technique. 2, record 3, English, - coffee%20cupping

In today's economy, hotel operators must constantly look at the bottom-line as the first step in considering any environmental initiative. The good news is that it makes great economic sense to implement environmentally friendly "green hotel" initiatives.... Green Suites International has refined the concept of a "green room" into the EcoRoom offering for traditional guestrooms and the Green Suites Accommodation offering for expanded lodging suites. These green guestroom solutions offer hotel operators a one-stop source for conserving water, energy and significantly reducing waste as well. EcoRooms are a great way to bring together all the pieces of the environmental economic puzzle. In addition to the environmental benefits, properties that undertake EcoRoom initiatives reap the benefits of reduced operating costs, improved guest and staff satisfaction, and enhanced public image. 3, record 4, English, - ecological%20room
