We must move quickly to a low-carbon, energy-positive society. That fact can be scary or exciting. In a rapidly changing world where ecological breakdown is obvious yet denied, what does the open-eyed, caring citizen make of it all? We seek truths on which to base our actions, guideposts to give us direction, stability and purpose and community with whom to share the journey.

David works with audiences and clients to explore ideas and solutions. He applies his expertise in energy-positive urban renewal, main street renaissance, active transportation, and the pursuit of ecological integrity in our personal and professional lives.

Speaking and workshops

David offers dynamic, engaging keynote speeches and workshop sessions on the topics of:

• Urban renewal and main street revitalization
• Active transportation and practical cycling
• Living lightly when life gets heavy—grappling with ecological integrity
