Chamber Chills
Gwendolyn Brooks poem, what is it about?
A dryness is upon the house
my father loved and tended.
beyond his firm and sculpted door
his light and lease have ended.

he walks the valleys, now–replies
to sun and wind forever.
no more the cramping chamber’s chill
no more the hindering fever.

now out upon the wide clean air
my father’s soul revives,
all innocent of self-interest
and the fear that strikes and strives.

he who was Goodness, Gentleness,
and Dignity is free,
translates public love
old private charity.

I understand its about her father and how he was loving and then died, but what else?

Look at the images used to describe how the father’s death has changed the house.
And at the images used to describe the father now and before he died.

What is LEED? LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. This green building rating system was created by the USGBC (United States Green Building Council). The purpose for this is to provide a set of standards for environmentally sustainable construction. There is only one organization that can certify lumber as a LEED approved wood and that is FSC™ (Forest Stewardship Council).
Who is FSC™? Well this is a non profit and independent organization created to promote responsible forest management worldwide. The organization has independent certification companies they work with to get companies accredited. Becoming certified demonstrates your willingness to comply with the highest standards on the market. Certification requires annual audit surveillance and compliance and is valid for five years. It will show your creditability and responsibility for forest conservation to consumers, business associates, banks and other organizations. This requires commitment from the company requesting an audit by requiring stringent trail of procedures, policies and paperwork as well as a financial investment.
FSC is comprised of 3 chambers. The reason for this is in maintaining a balance of voting power among the different interests within the FSC. There is a 33.3% voting power per chamber and a affirmative vote of 66.6% has to be given for a vote to be adopted. The chambers are as follows:
Economic Chamber: This includes individuals and organizations with interest in commercial forest products entities. This may entail large manufacturers and retailers as well as small businesses.
Social Chamber: This chamber may include social movements and indigenous organizations such as unions who have an interest in the future of this type of organization. Examples
