"Mixed Greens" is a coalition of speakers and social entrepreneurs generating the empowering stories of their real life results to bring sustainable practices in the building industry and business communities. The speakers address intentional design, resource and energy wisdom covering innovations in home and building heating and cooling, to personal financial and corporate responsibility. The purpose is to activate individuals and business in very practical steps.

Practices, images, stories, language and worldviews are fundamental to address in order to transform the causes directing the ecological and social issues of our times.

Many groups are working on technical solutions and plans.
The challenge is for individuals and organizations to truly change behavior. Such change demands introducing practical approaches, new experiences, and an attractive, believable vision of what life can be like on the planet. The opportunity is to provide the space for a sense of joy to enter into community building.

The Alliance for a Sustainable Future brings this work of opening one's sense of belonging and interconnectedness, as the fundamental missing ingredient to the present sustainability work in the region and beyond.
