Cohousing-L Mailing List: Environmental Savings

[Bob Lilienfeld (bob]

Hi all!

I have been lurking for a few weeks now, and am quite fascinated with
CoHousing. I am the editor of The ULS Report -- ULS means Use Less Stuff,
and would like to include a story on CoHousing in either the Jan-Feb or
March-Apr issues.

Here's my question: Can anyone provide me with documented evidence
regarding the environmental efficiency of CoHousing vs standard single
family housing? Where are the savings -- Food? Energy? Garbage?

Your responses will be most helpful and appreciated.

If you're interested, you can review the report via any of the following:
