I'm looking forward to boots and jacket weather. Just a little longer... Speaking of heat, if you haven't read the Demos 'Economic and Environmental Impacts of Climate Change in Arizona' Report, you can download it <a href="http://bit.ly/OkYhTh" target="_blank"><b>HERE</b></a>.

Last week, I was super honored to be profiled in a <a href="http://bit.ly/UE5qwT" target="_blank"><b><span style="font-size: large;">grist.org article</span></b></a> about our battle with SB1507 last legislative session. My main partner in fighting the good fight was Sandy Bahr, Exec. Director of <a href="http://on.fb.me/S2KtYV" target="_blank"><b>Grand Canyon Chapter Sierra Club</b></a> and an all around phenomenal human. <b> <a href="http://linkd.in/U4lDt5" target="_blank">Jonce Walker</a>, <a href="http://linkd.in/QeyQz0" target="_blank">Jeff Frost</a>, <a href="http://linkd.in/O7J0iJ" target="_blank">Phil Allsopp</a> & <a href="http://linkd.in/NVsB74" target="_blank">Talonya Adams</a> </b>all helped me keep my sanity by allowing me to rant on a regular basis over those long weeks! The grist piece was a featured story, and I got nice notes from people all over the country (and world) after it ran which was a surprise and super appreciated, especially as I had been scolded by so many people locally for being so vocal about the bill and getting the media involved. A huge shout out to <a href="http://linkd.in/OAbK5f" target="_blank"><b>Emily Gersema</b></a> for breaking that first story - a story that ended up going national shortly thereafter, which in my opinion, played a huge role in the bill finally dying. I've been a big grist fan for many years, so was and am still dorking out over it. It's kind of like the Rolling Stone of the environmental industry...<br />

On September 21st, it will be time to set up parks for our 4th annual <a href="http://on.fb.me/P4gsZR" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Park(ing) Day Phoenix</b></span></a> during Friday morning rush hour in downtown Phoenix.<br />
<br />
PARK(ing) Day was originally created in 2005 by Rebar, a San Francisco-based art and design studio, as an experimental exploration in repurposing public space. It is an annual, one-day, global event that promotes the importance of green and urban public spaces. It is intended to help people rethink the way we use our streets and creates diverse conversations about how we can make sustainable cities. This concept of PARK(ing) Day is based on the idea that putting money into a parking meter is like ʻrentingʼ a public space.

SPEECH TOPIC:<br />
Attack of the Dodo-Sapiens: innovative new models for sustainable development<br />
<br />
Our way of life is killing us. Whether by tradition or habit, the human race does some silly things that hurt us all in the long term. Our cities, buildings and surroundings have been designed around abundant and cheap oil, but now we have painted ourselves into a corner and are stuck there.<br />
<br />
The next generation of buildings will have to do better than just energy efficiency and recycled materials. Our lack of foresight has made our building toxic, wasteful and unaffordable. Simply "being less bad" isn't enough and will delay our progress for generations. In order to undo the damage of the past, we need innovative, new models for how to build deep green, bio-based buildings.<br />
<br />
In this talk we will explore how the lessons learned from biomimicry, crowdfunding, psychology and history can provide new insight into ways to design and finance living, regenerative buildings for everyone in a matter of decades. We'll uncover specific, bold ideas for how to retrofit our existing cities and suburbs. Using case studies, we will discover new tools to design and fund a new wave of innovative buildings.<br />
<br />
Using biomimicry and organic principles as a guide, we'll uncover tangible, deployable lessons we can apply to our built environment. With specific examples, you'll learn innovative methods to sell clients on these ideas, while creating healthier buildings in the process.<br />
<br />
This brand new talk is "bullet-point free" (no boring, text heavy slides used). Using rich graphics and video, this presentation will expand your imagination and and provide you a list of actions to take into your own community. Presented by the acclaimed speaker, architect and author of "Green Building for Dummies."<br />
<br />
I hope to see you soon, and please feel free to send me an <a href="mailto:champion@cox.net" target="_blank"><b>email</b></a> if you have questions or comments about any of the items here!<br />
<br />
Love and laughter,<br />

Rogue Green was created to bring the fun back to GREEN. The grassroots, the inspiration, the loss of ego and collective spirit of seeing the BIGGER picture. It was my goal to help the arts and sustainability communities collide, to push the envelope, to help empower the community, to educate, inspire and infiltrate!<br />
<br />
For the past three years this has been one of my biggest love projects. I have organized monthly events to try to reach all of those objectives. We've had amazing presenters - <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Corey_Freed" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Eric Corey Freed">Eric Corey Freed</a>, Josiah Cain, Shane Snipes, Jonce Walker, Mark Wilhelm, and others. We've learned about biomimicry, climate change, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urban_heat_island" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Urban heat island">urban heat island effect</a>, energy programs and liveable communities to name a few... We've had roundtable discussions and networking events filled with meaningful conversations. We've participated in and organized community clean-ups and worked together to save the 1st St. ficus tree. We've written letters and attended city and legislative hearings. We've stopped bad anti-sustainability bills and potentially toxic pipelines under schools. And then of course there's my beloved chalkboard project! We - our community - went Rogue Green and kicked some serious ass! I couldn't have done this without the support of various sponsors and generous building owners. I thank each and every one of you who has ever attended an event - especially all of you regulars!<br />
<br />
I am proud to call Phoenix my home, even though it drives me crazy sometimes. It is a fight worth fighting for...<br />
<br />
So in keeping the momentum going, the beautiful domino effect of inspiration, this event will be a very special one for me - and I hope for you too. I have invited many of the people who are near and dear to my heart in the sustainability community to share their inspiration for fighting the good fight in 2 minute speeches. What drives them to make change? What propels them forward? I'm so excited to hear what they have to say!<br />
<br />
There will be music and snacks and mingling. There will be surprise guests. I will be smiling! Please join us for the celebration in the home of my new industrial treehouse fort workspace in the beautiful monOrchid building in <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Downtown_Phoenix" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank" title="Downtown Phoenix">downtown Phoenix</a>. I will also be making some very SPECIAL announcements.<br />

<br />
SPEECH TOPIC:<br />
Dodo-Sapiens: how our way of life is killing us and the need for regenerative, bio-based buildings<br />
<br />
We are victims of our own stupidity. Seemingly harmless decisions about our buildings made decades ago and now throwing all of our natural systems into decline. While every other technology has made vast improvements (cell phones, computers, automobiles), our buildings continue to be boring, energy-wasting and toxic. In this talk, you’ll tour bold, new ideas for transforming our cities and suburbs into regenerative and restorative places. By learning from Nature, we’ll uncover lessons to apply to our built environment that will save energy, water, resources and be healthier in the process.<br />
<br />
This brand new "bullet-point free" talk is presented by the acclaimed speaker and author of "Green Building for Dummies."<br />
<br />
LEARNING OUTCOMES:<br />
<br />
* Discover how biomimicry (study of nature as designer) can apply to our built environment<br />
<br />
* Understand new methods of saving water, restoring aquifers, recycling greywater by copying natural systems<br />
<br />
* Uncover hidden opportunities to radically transform our existing cities and suburbs<br />
<br />
* Discover how voluntary programs don’t go far enough, and the bold initiatives needed in your city<br />
<br />
* Map out an action plan for what you can do to implement these ideas<br />

I decided to do something about it, so organized a Rogue Green clean-up. I had also read about a <a href="http://candychang.com/before-i-die-in-nola/">really cool project in New Orleans done by Candy Chang</a> that week, which inspired me to create something similar, but make it Phoenix specific.<br>
