Cohousing-L Mailing List: RE: Building a More Sustainable Community

[Rob Sandelin (floriferous]

There is a beginning  effort being made to create a sustainable community
building conference in Seattle, to draw together  examples of  what has been
done and bring together people from all over  the world  that are working on
sustainable community examples. The goal is also to bring in the planners,
the architects, bankers and  builders and in  the ideal, all  these people
rubbing shoulders and talking with each other, seeing and hearing examples,
will bring forth some new ideas and  energies  towards sustainable community
development. The first working title for this conference is Creating
Sustainable America, making it happen.

If you have a resource or idea for such a conference, send it my way and I
will forward it  on the planners of this conference. The current, very loose
first date for this event is  Fall 2001.
