A Guide for Green Living by marinmodern

I recently came across a wonderful resource that I would like to share with my friends and clients.  TerraMarin is a handsome new magazine – born and bred right here in Marin County and dedicated to all things green.  The magazine is a work of art; a beautifully presented, well thought-out resource for sustainability – full of interesting articles, useful information, and stunning photography.  What I appreciate most about TerraMarin, however, is the positive approach it takes to dealing with the global issues facing our environment.  TerraMarin empowers the reader by offering tips and resources for solutions that are well within our reach, as a community and as individuals.

Sustainable Growth in Marin by marinmodern

The Marin Board of Supervisors has, at long last, adopted a much-anticipated blueprint for managed development in unincorporated areas of Marin County.  In an effort to accomplish sustainable growth, the plan calls for preservation of the natural environment, compromise in proposed construction projects, and includes eco-friendly requirements for new development within the county. Seven years in the making, this plan is not without controversy. While environmentalists applaud the effort, others feel the program is too restrictive and will make it difficult to meet Marin’s housing needs.  The most hotly debated issue was a compromise that reduces a proposed senior community development from an initial plan of 1,100 acres to 30 – 40...
