Jeff Speck - Part 3 Planning for Climate Change and Walkability

Two hundred elected officials, City employees, architects, builders, developers, engineers, realtors, bankers, CSU students, and other community leaders filled the Trade Center Dining Gallery (at 7:30 a.m.!) to hear for The Livable City: Community Revitalization the Smart Growth Way, the sixth presentation in MidTown, Inc.'s Community Speaker Series. The breakfast program was co-sponsored by the Coalition for Sound Growth.

Jeff Speck, a Washington, DC-based city planner and urban designer, is a leading advocate for smart growth practices and sustainable design, and co-author of Suburban Nation: The Rise of Sprawl and the Decline of the American Dream, and the recently published Smart Growth Manual.

Also jeff one major cause of global warming is the Agriculture department due to Cows releasing small amounts of Methane when they pass gas. It is a proven study and is mind boggling that we didnt see this coming. My name is also Jeff Speck and Ironicly enough I am interested in Major Ecological Problems Too. Great Video Keep Up The Fight. GREEN WILL WIN!!!!
