brighter lights: portland appropriate technologies
DESCRIPTION
A presentation I did at the Brighter Lights show at the Portland Expo Center in March 2009. The presentation focused on going deeper than green to build your own appropriate technologies as: Not avoiding things you want, but engaging in actions you like. Not decreasing consumption, but increasing joy. Not conserving resources, just savoring them.TRANSCRIPT
