		<description><![CDATA[You almost never see a cow in a tree. That&#8217;s why I was so surprised that day in February when I encountered one at the Docklands, a new green redevelopment district in the City of Melbourne. The Cow (and tree), it should quickly be noted, were in fact part of an unusual art installation, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don’t think we talk enough about wonder in planning schools today. That sense of fascination, awe, of being spellbound by the immensity, delicacy, beauty of something, is an essential ingredient of our human spirit, and to making life joyous and meaningful. Yet it goes virtually undiscussed in professional planning programs, with few insights offered [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two weeks ago I had the chance to visit the Los Angeles Ecovillage (LAEV), and spent time with its visionary creator Lois Arkin. The story of the LAEV is inspirational and instructive.  Located 3-miles west of downtown, the Ecovillage represents a compelling model of how to begin to transform dysfunctional and unsustainable urban (and suburban) [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It would be an interesting exercise to inventory the &#8220;things&#8221; we have in our homes and offices—the objects, the equipment, specialized things, electronic and otherwise, that occupy space. Along with this accounting, might be some estimate of how recently the thing has actually been used, and how frequently. My hunch is that much of our [...]]]></description>

Yet, this weather system is one of the aspects of place I remember most fondly; I can [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ 
Perhaps because we are such Olympians at moving, at shifting and transitioning to new lives, new jobs and new houses, Americans know relatively little about the places in which they live. Much of my own work has been about the creative ideas for educating about place and region, and for deepening connections to nature [...]]]></description>
