I got an invitation from Phil Gibson, a much admired colleague recently. Phil is the Director of Research and Community Outreach at the Environmental Leadership Center at Warren Wilson College just down the valley in Black Mountain, North Carolina. The Environmental Leadership Center has the mission of "raising awareness of local, national and global environmental realities and to inspire caring citizens - especially our youth - to reflect, to communicate, and to act as responsible caretakers of the earth. "
The Eco-Steward Firm has had a similar mission, and so I was excited when Phil told me that Clarke Snell who wrote and autographed my copy of his book, Building Green, was going to be doing a presentation there. Clarke would be talking about " Sustainable Construction Methods" over at the Canon Lounge of the Gladfelter Building.
That got me thinking that readers might be interested in information about events sponsored by the Environmental Leadership Center. So here is a worthy link for you:
