spin off

Another delay. Been busy with real estate and with green issues related to real estate. That gets to the matter at hand. I've decided to start another blog to focus on Climate Change, energy efficiency in housing and other buildings, community planning strategies and lifestyle adjustments that reduce CO2 emissions. Should be up in a few days---developing list of names today.

There is a huge volume of information out there and most of it tends to be negative, bordering on scare tactics. That doesn't go over well with most people and most industries. Change is hard and it's even harder if that "you are not worthy as you are" shroud gets draped on the process.

There are positive things happening all over the world. Little things, big things and everything in between. There is a limitless buffet of possibilities---low hanging fruit for everyone! The key is for wide participation to occur sooner, rather than later. Ordinances alone won't get things where they need to be in time. Neither will business as usual.

Motivation, ability to act and trigger mechanisms are how behavior changes and those will be explored in detail using the new blog. Behavioral changes cost little or nothing, can happen quickly and when done by enough people can have a significant impact on CO2 emissions.
