Green is good. Looks like a good documentary. Same as Michele, I can't wait to see the whole thing.

what is being taught of green is very spesific..

this looks like a great documentary.. greening our cities will bring about the green collar revolution - and it's pretty much now or never.

My grandfather was born in South Boston, a place we never considered as an innovative, green neighborhood. Fascinating interview and obviously an amazing undertaking which is sure to inspire better building techniques. Your point on taking green technology out of the 'elitist' category and converting it to green collar truly is a huge part of any solution.

This film sounds great. I look forward to seeing it. However it doesn't seem right that the architects for the project are not mentioned anywhere in this article, not by the film makers and not by the developer. The architects and engineers are responsible for integrating the various systems and materials of green building long before the building is built. I think that Office dA deserves some credit for the hard work that they did in making this a green building.
