Green Cities, Healthy Communities

From TransForm:

Join Sadhu Aufochs Johnston, the Deputy City Manager for the City of Vancouver, Canada and co-author of The Guide to Greening Cities (Island Press), for a conversation about Vancouver and other cities' efforts to change how they build and operate their cities to make them greener and healthier places to live.
