The Sustainable Building Advisor Program in San Francisco has partnered with the Presidio MBA Program's Green Building Club to bring you an evening of inspiring ideas, interesting discussion and entertainment.

Eric Corey Freed, acclaimed speaker and author of "Green Building for Dummies" will be sharing his brand new "bullet-point free" talk called, Dodo-Sapiens: how our way of life is killing us and the need for regenerative, bio-based buildings.

Eric says, "We are victims of our own stupidity.  Seemingly harmless decisions about our buildings made decades ago aar 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."
