Worldwatch article on ecovillages and cohousing
In August Worldwatch published a nice article about ecovillages and cohousing and how they can help reduce one's ecological footprint.
This article is still getting picked up by other media, this time by Natural Life magazine of Canada.
Many ecovillages are reducing energy use, localizing farming and creating more sustainable local businesses. Other environmentally minded communities, including the more than 450 co-housing projects found in North America and Europe, focus primarily on improving the quality of life of residents. Co-housing typically includes clusters of smaller houses with shared dining halls and other spaces, facilitating stronger social ties while reducing the material and energy needs of the community.
