General Comment. I support the conclusions of the USGBC TSAC report. This is an attempt to bring order to a large and difficult body of data. I particularly appreciate the accurate reporting of many previously ignored studies that show the balance in the questions about PVC.

Negative credits for materials should only be given when no value as a preferred material can be found. The TSAC has rightly decided that negative credits should not be issued for PVC.
