Profile Information

How are you currently involved in Transition to a post-petroleum lifestlyle?
I have presented over 300 times on sustainability around the globe. I just won "Green Entrepreneur of the Year" in Indiana, and use local sustainable materials as much as possible.
How do you identify with the Transition movement? Why are you interested?
I am an advocate and designer for zero emissions and integrated design. Understanding and implementing systems that mimic nature will be the one of the best ways through this transition.
How can you help the growth / acceptance / vitality of local Transition efforts? What can YOU teach us? What can your Group teach us?
I can teach you how to use the 5 kingdoms of nature to solve Bloomington's most pressing issues surrounding water, energy, food, health, architecture, education, and job creation. This movement will not get very far without understanding the systems at play.
