[Greenbuilding] [BULK] Re: EcoStar roofing tiles - LCA?

[Lawrence Lile]

Metal is, of course, full of recycled material and recycleable at the
end of it's useful life, which will be longer than most of us will be
alive, and energy star rated if it is coated with the right materials.
I'm sure you've considered it, but my opinion is a good metal roof is
one of the greenest options.  "We don't need no stinkin' plastic!"

Okay, never mind about the article - I realized I own the archive CD of 
EBN articles 1992 - 2001.  Article found.  Uselessness of article
confirmed.

Now I need to know how in the world I can compare asphalt shingles to 
these EcoStar things...  can anyone help me do that?
