Say hi to NOLA!
Though this post is not directly connected to green design, it is a sustainable act. Yesterday my husband and I rescued a sweet, shy and loveable Lab-mix stray from the Ukiah Animal Care and Control.
You can check out more details about her at her own Dogster.com page. You can even leave her a virtual bone!
If you live in the area and are interested in following in our footsteps I strongly recommend checking out pawstoadopt.com.
This site is completely the brainchild and effort of a 15 year old compassionate volunteer. This photo attached was taken by her as well as all the wonderful photos of the available dogs on the site. She has an amazing talent to catch the personalities of each dog. Cats are there too if that is your preference.
Enjoy!
Climate Change Education: 2/20/07 Register Now
Ed Mazria is a visionary architect, author and educator who has been instrumental in educating us about the impact of the building industry on climate change. He is participating in a unique educational opportunity that I strongly recommend checking out called "The 2010 Imperative: Global Emergency Teach-In." It is a live web-cast event taking place from 9a -12:30p (PST) on 2/20/07. You can check out the schedule of speakers and more info on them by clicking here. Many architectural firms, schools and government agencies will be participating, including Kwan Henmi. I'm not sure if individuals can register themselves, but if not the AIA SF will be broadcasting it in their new offices. This will definitely stir up some new posts for me. I'm really looking forward to it! Stay tuned...
