Common Ground featured at UC Berkeley Energy and Resources Collaborative (BERC) symposium
Chris Greacen showed these slides as part of a panel called "Energy Efficiency for the 99%". The slides cover the basic features of the Common Ground project, including energy efficiency measures, construction techniques, the community construction (featuring interns and homeowners). It invites viewers to consider that "energy efficiency for the 99%" is an opportunity to rethink the American Dream. It takes inspired leadership and some hard work, but building affordable, superefficient housing can be a nucleation point for fun, active, deeply meaningful community building.
