I'm especially glad to see Eco-Districts as a new trend. Living in an urban environment myself, I've always felt it's better, eco-wise, because I can get anywhere I need to by public transportation and numerous stores are within walking distance. One down-side, though, is there's no place to plant and grow one's own food if you live in a thickly-settled area. So my request to city planners in urban environments is, please start planning more space for community gardens. And for green builders, can you start figuring out ways to make roof-top gardening a possibility for new buildings? Thanks for the great article! Excellent insight!
