A Green Building Theology: Green Buildings = Green Mountains
http://greenbuildingtheology.blogspot.com/2008/12/green-buildings-green-mountains.html
A Green Building Theology. Saturday, December 13, 2008. Green Buildings = Green Mountains. Mountaintop removal is the new and improved, fast, cheap way coal companies are extracting veins of coal from Earth –new in that it started in the 1970’s, improved in that it reduces manpower needs and takes less time than digging tunnels and mining by more ‘traditional’ means would, all resulting in less labor costs and increased profit.

http://greenbuildingtheology.blogspot.com/2009/04/redefining-ritual-of-groundbreaking.html
A Green Building Theology. Friday, April 17, 2009. Redefining the Ritual of Groundbreaking. Building is a profound act. It is the point where the built environment –our creation, man’s creation, meet’s the natural environment, God’s creation, Earth. In the age of creating a more sustainable environment however, is a groundbreaking enough? What if a more in-depth ritual were to become a part of each building site? Maybe it's me, but a golden handled shovel just doesn't seem to be enough anymore. Govt Jobs...

http://whatisyourshade.blogspot.com/2009/01/environmental-actions-today.html
Shades of Green: What is your Shade? Monday, January 12, 2009. About a month ago, I published a piece on the EcoHome Magazine. Website entitled Shades of Green. Different from my Decoding Green Building Blog. Shades of Green will delve more into the political and socio-economic news that is so hotly debated in all forms of media. I will share a lot more opinion here, keeping my other blog for information about programs, products and implementation. Who has the right answer? Then, commit more energy and r...

Shades of Green: What is your Shade? Thursday, May 14, 2009. Exploring the Food We Eat…. As a student of Sustainability, I am quickly learning there are many opportunities to learn more about the world around us and efforts to improve our lives. Last night was such an occasion as I attend a pre-screening of a new documentary about our food production industry, Food, Inc. (By Filmmaker Robert Kenner). The film also shares the success of companies like Stonyfield Farms and founder Gary Hirshberg. I found i...

A Green Building Theology: March 2009
http://greenbuildingtheology.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
A Green Building Theology. Sunday, March 15, 2009. The Value of Value Engineering - Part 5. Recap - Parts 1-4. Alright, this is the end of the Value Engineering series. For those who've been reading all along, I hope you've enjoyed the series. If you didn't, please let me know. This approach was an experiment on my part anyway, and in truth, I'm not 100 percent sure how it's worked either! How many gallons of gas does it take to build a building? For the most part, we are not building for longevity nor a...

A Green Building Theology: The Value of Value Engineering - Part 3
http://greenbuildingtheology.blogspot.com/2009/03/value-of-value-engineering-part-3.html
A Green Building Theology. Sunday, March 1, 2009. The Value of Value Engineering - Part 3. Recap - Parts 1 and 2. So to date, I've talked about paradigm shifts, easy buttons, LEED and sites. This week, it's water. I've written about water before in this blog -see my Water Follies. Post But I don't think you can ever talk too much about water, especially our increasing lack of it. And water use is the second LEED category -Water Efficiency that is. Water, Water Everywhere? Our Use and Misuse. But what if ...
