Finally! Heartstrings! We aren’t planning any emotional promotional videos any time soon, but after all our talk of data and economics and infrastructure, we welcome a little sympathetic resonance:

Green Schools. Healthy children. Healthy buildings that foster healthy children. Kids learning about sustainability, and even using online tools to judge the greenness of the buildings and communities they spend their days in. All of this accelerated by collaboration, sharing, and cooperative education.

This is the passion of Grass Commons director Shari Aaron. And now, thanks her efforts and a grant from the Connecticut Green Building Council, we will be starting work on a Green School Toolbox: a Wagn website devoted to means, methods, and metrics for helping schools lead the way towards a developed world that reflects developed wisdom.

Great thanks to Shari and CTGBC for their foresight.
