Proud of my Mama today for having her letter printed in the Dallas Morning News @dallasnews.com in defense of Architect I.M. Pei’s masterful work of art - the Dallas City Hall. Please share and support. As my mom says, “let’s make a stink!” #savedallascityhall #DallasCityHall #PreservationDallas.

In a world where we should be using less stuff, we are using "more and more and more." A new book questions whether energy transitions are real.

Is an energy transition to renewables really happening, or is it all additive, where we are using as much coal and wood as we ever did? A look at a new book that questions the conventional wisdom. lloydalter.substack.com/p/in-a-world...

I may be new to the Pacific Northwest, but I’m so excited and encouraged to see familiar #PassiveHouse faces tonight. Excellent turnout here in Bellingham WA, to listen to Tessa Bradley (Artisans Group) and Forest Chiavario (Chuckanut Builders) present the importance of high-performance building.
