Brett be careful what you ask for - you will doubtless receive it in spades.
OS and Sustainability are old friends. Ralph Copleman an old friend of many
years,  directs a sustainability project in New Jersey and Open Space has
been a part ever since. Where are you Ralph? Then we have Kai Degner, Mayor
of Harrisonburg, VA whose Open Space community summits have dealt with
sustainability amongst other things. A Google check will get you info about
that.

Subject: Open space applied to sustainability projects?

 

I am working on a survey for NYC Accelerator for Cleantech and Renewable
Energy. We'd like to speak to anyone who has applied OST to sustainability
projects in communities, municipalities, regions. 

Our focus is to understand how OST can improve engagement and design process
for sustainability development or technology projects as well as mitigate
political and delay risks for financiers of these projects. 

Our finds have the potential to open up more liquidity for investment in
locally sponsored revenue or carbon credit generating sustainability
projects by better managing costs and delay or political risks of doing
small locally based deals. 

We're interviewing players at every step of the value chain from design
through project developers in solar, wind, tidal, geo-thermal, micro-grid,
permaculture, waste/discards, water, brown fields re-development, de-paving,
community agriculture to financing, construction, and management. 

Please let me know if you have any knowledge of OST applied to projects like
these. We really look forward to talking to you about it. We'll share our
findings results with our survey participants. 

Best regards, 
Brett Barndt
