Green Construction and Drone Manufacturing Industries Zachary Edgerton, Taylor Gleason, Andrew Hain, Bradley Jones, Benjamin Spitzner
Drone Manufacturing Green Construction
Green Construction Industry EDGE Perspective • Ethics • Primarily focused with sustainability • Renewable materials/energy efficiency (reduce pollution) • Possible use of illegal foreign labor practices • Provide the future with more than what we have today • Ensure construction projects sufficiently meet safety standards and environmental standards set by government • Diversity • Through diversity, new ideas, innovations, and discoveries to improve practices • Collaboration with various countries/cultures during construction • Construction in different (physical) environments
Green Construction Industry EDGE Perspective • Global • Globalization significant influence in the industry • Global drivers include: • New technology, governance and regulations, environmental pressures, urbanization, drastic population change • Global drivers can create new markets, fluctuate taxes and fines, hinder availability of resources, cause extreme changes in demand • Environment • Primary focus of Green Construction • Sustainability of wealth for future generations • Protecting the environment (carbon footprint) • Creating homes and buildings more energy efficient • Raising the quality of buildings constructed (useful life)
Drone Manufacturing Industry EDGE Perspective • Ethics • To whom the industry conducts business with • Drone technology poses threat if used by enemies of the United States • Diversity • Drones currently used primarily for Military purposes • Diversify abilities of drones to enter new markets beyond • Various climate conditions • Law enforcement and firefighting enhancement • Monitoring and measuring weather conditions • Agricultural Purposes • By entering different areas of world/cultures innovative changes can be found
Drone Manufacturing IndustryEDGE Perspective • Global • Development of new nations increases demand of drone technology • Drone technology enhances research capabilities • Drone technology increases security • As more countries develop and acquire drones, U.S. military demand will increase • Environment • Raises quality of life and benefits society • Protection of soldier’s through unmanned aerial vehicles • Advanced military protecting the U.S. and allies citizens • Surveillance capabilities can reduce crime • Less resources expended when military uses drones versus humans
