Resources

reviews: books, "guides" and other tools
I use a lot of different materials in my work and I'm often asked to recommend books and reports for various purposes. This section provides my perspective on a range of other resources.

newsletter archive
The quarterly, sustainable design hub newsletter is archived here. Sign up at left to recieve it directly. Many of the reivews start out as items in the newsletter and then eventually migrate to the review section above.

August 2009 Newsletter
"lifecycles" theme covering lifecycle design tools, review of Design is the Problem, and lifecycle slides you can download

short articles
Occasionally I prepare short adaptations from material in the book. The first two are here:

"10 ways to work in sustainable design" and
"central debates of sustainable design."

teaching guide
If you're teaching, get the most out of The Designer's Atlas of Sustainability by using the downloadable teaching guide.

teaching discussion list
Have room for another list? The sustainable design teaching list (SUSDESIGNTEACH) is focused on discussion of the complexities of teaching sustainable design.
