the PURPOSE PRIZE is awarded to over 60 yr olds for their vision and facilitation of effort to address some societal problem or issue. This talk by Ed Mazira who recognized that the built environment contributes 70% of greenhouse gases, and sought to identify remedies to this massive issue.
We had his Passive Solar textbook & were starting reducing energy use for our small business. Then, for my birthday Sept 06, we saw Ed Mazria talk in Santa Barbara about smart and wasteful buildings. Emotional for me. We 'd installed a 5kw PV system & decided to aim for carbon neutral. We've decreased by around 85-90% & now aiming for carbon negative business/residence. Ed is our inspiration. We're grateful for Ed's visionary persevering hard work and leadership. Good to see him being honored.
