Cascadia: A Vision for a Restorative Future
Creating more sustainable cities is often seen as simply adopting the latest technologies to reach our desired end. Beyond specific strategies, what ways of looking at the world will help us navigate the process of change? The challenge of sustainability is not one of science but one of understanding. It is time to begin viewing cities as large ecosystems, shaped in large measure by the availability of key resources and optimized to meet the long-term needs of their inhabitants. Island Press' second Thought Leaders Discussion on the Built Environment features short, sharp presentations from three impressive speakersincluding the Bullitt Foundation's Denis Hayes; Lucia Athens, Chief Sustainability Officer, City of Austin, TX (formerly City of Seattle); and Patrick Condon, Professor of Landscape and Liveable Environments at University of British Columbiafollowed by a conversation moderated by Jason Twill, Sr. Project Manager for Sustainability, Design & Construction at Vulcan.
