本题解释:
正确答案：ABE
系统解析: C:Studies show that most of the time an existing building can be renovated/reused and achieve the same energy savings as a new building would have, without demolishing and sending the old building to the landfill.

D:New buildings use more materials than reusing existing structures. If the building is going on prime farmland, additional resources will be needed to bring in utilities and roads.

Notes:

Building reuse, materials reuse and conducting an LCA of a building are three ways to reduce the harm done to the environment by construction.
