Description: Reading, besides being a wonderful use of the mind, can help gather momentum on your chosen path. Predictably, Steve Stelzer, the Program Director has read a few books on the subject of sustainability on his path to the Green Building Resource Center. Are you an avid reader? Perhaps you worry about the commitment a book takes in case it turns out to be more title than substance.

This session will feature a slide presentation of many quotes from a plethora of interesting books that range from best sellers to a few you might not have heard about, based upon his “The Blind Men and the Elephant” book list that he started handing out in 2003 and has been updating ever since whenever new books outshine any of the earlier selections. Steve will present converging ideas and contrasts from a cross section of the books to give the audience an idea of the community effect of authors concerned about the state of the human race and what we need to do to keep it on track with the planet. Each attendee will receive a booklist.
