Things seem to be a little quiet this week on the living architecture front. And the most interesting bits are a touch depressing, but as always we'll end on a happy note.
-The Canadian Environmental Network, "one of Canada’s oldest, largest, and most well-respected democratic institutions serving the environmental concerns of all Canadians" will not
receive core funding in 2012. It's definitely a blow to smaller environmental organizations across Canada.
-A judge who believe humans cannot produce and consume foods of their choice has joined a Monsanto Law Firm. I seriously can't make up stuff this amazing, folks.
-Lastly, and happily, multiple levels of government in New York have agreed to mitigate sewer overflow via $187 million dollars in green infrastructure. My prediction? New York is green roof capital of North America by 2017! Of course, Chicago has a head start and Rahm Emanuel wants to keep it that way, but we will see!
