Creating Place: Remaking America Green Dr. Robert A. Fielden Faia

While America historically has been the birthplace of leadership for the world to follow and center for modern invention, our nation now lags behind developing nations like Portugal when it regards protecting the environment, living sustainably and wisely using renewable resources. This book gives Americans the opportunity to change and offers ways in which we can once again regain our leadership for the nation through example by altering daily behavior in simple ways. Patterns for sustainable life begin with each individual and American household. From here change for sustainability expands to include neighbors and neighborhoods - and on to the community at large. All communities throughout America have a need to be uniquely different from one another. Creating Place is about creating unique sustainable communities. Remaking America Green is about leaving our nation, and our children and grandchildren with successful sustainable and healthy futures.
