US Building Council Presents Brad Pitt With Honors Award
Sep 27 2009
Brad Pitt was recently invited to speak about the latest developments of his Make It Right Foundation, based in New York, at the 5th Annual Clinton Global Initiative. Brad was reported as saying “I don’t know how we build any other way anywhere else,” he continued “We can no longer tell ourselves that implementing this technology is too complex a problem because it’s just been proven on this little spot on the map.”
While at the event Brad also picked up an honor from the US Green Building Council for the work he has put into raising awareness about sustainable building methods and practices which has led to an improvement in the lives of people in New Orleans.
“Make It Right’ has exceeded my expectations,” Pitt said and he added. “Our criteria from the beginning were at odds, to say the least. We demanded that these homes be sustainable, that they have aesthetic qualities… that they be storm resilient and take safety in mind of the families who live there and that they would be affordable.”
