Last week Rob Bennett, the executive director of Portland Sustainability Institute, published a great op-ed in the Huffington Post about green neighborhood development.  He brings up an intriguing correlation between the current global economy and the greening of cities that is, as Rob says, "emerging because of the financial crisis, not in spite of it".  Check out his article "From Green Building to Green Cities".  If you're interested in learning more about Portland Sustainability Institute check out their website www.pdxinstitute.org.
