Sustainability Starts From You

"The most effective way to successfully achieve the ambitious goal of building a socially just and environmentally sustainable global society from the ground up is to first focus on our immediate health and well being. One of the greatest absurdities of modern life is when we go to an expert, like a doctor or a therapist, who keeps telling us to do things that they themselves do not do. We have too many people who do not practice what they preach. The most effective way to spread the gospel of sustainable design and development to others is to develop sustainably designed systems in our own lives."
