- Urban agriculture, re-localizing our economy, Permaculture, transit, energy efficient building.........! Every bit of this sounds amazing to me. I'm a fabricator/carpenter by trade and I have seen so much wast in the layout and use of potentially productive or efficient space.So much precious resources wasted driving an ineffective outsourced economy. I feel much of the local code requires quite a deal of overhaul to meet the logical demands of socially and energy conscious communities. No longer do I want to work on projects and great constructs cobbled together by nothing more than highly leveraged financial motivation, exploiting the masses insecure lust for style efficiency and estetic.
- What would you like to see improved in Vancouver or in your community regarding sustainability or resiliency? Do you have an idea for a new Transition project or activity?
- I think I touched on that in the aforesaid. Also, goats are kinda cool.
