Ecovillages: Where They Are, What They're Doing, Why They're Important

Diana Leafe Christian, EcoVillage Newsletter Publisher and Educator

Learn about the ecological, economic, social and cultural aspects of sustainability, with photos and stories from dozens of EcoVillage projects worldwide. Discover how finding community is as critical as obtaining food and shelter, and how "multiple centers of initiative" in a resident-planned-and-run green neighborhood can prevent suburban sprawl. Meet others who seek to create a family-oriented or retirement-focused ecologically sustainable life, in the Bay Area and beyond.
