Sustainability

I ran across this piece on some recent data Dwell Media compiled. While there’s no huge surprises in the competitive brand cloud, it was a little disheartening to see fewer people actually walking the sustainable walk. My work continues.

Dwell compiled a visual so that brand representative could see, clearly, how the top 50 companies named by the surveyed group compete against one another.Also, as was mentioned before, while this group lists sustainability as a concern, many don’t often buy sustainable products."

Thanks to Paul Smith, [@greensmith] I got wind of this happy hour event at South By Southwest on March 15. And true to the serendipitous nature of Twitter, I discovered several other green companies and folks that give a damn. Hope to see some of you guys in Austin.

And I’m almost positive we’ve driven by this house – it’s awesome.

"Pricing for a Ma Modular home starts at about $125 per square foot, which includes R19 walls, R30 to R50 roofing, low-E insulated windows, durable and reflective metal roofing, and cabinets and flooring from green materials such as bamboo or cork. The price includes set up of the home but doesn’t include foundation."
