Cities, suburbs, and towns are like ecosystems: they work best for both people and the environment when each of their component parts is healthy and all the parts are working together in a healthy and harmonious way. But today our communities are under enormous stress, and it is more important than ever that we take great care in determining how we shape them for the future. Longtime environmental lawyer, sustainability advocate, and author Kaid Benfield has devoted his career to finding and promoting green and healthy approaches to that great task. Welcome to PEOPLE HABITAT, introducing a sample of Kaid’s writing and thinking about how to create and sustain a better built environment.
