"In describing today's accelerating changes, the media fire blips of unrelated information at us. Experts bury us under mountains of narrowly specialized monographs. Popular forecasters present lists of unrelated trends, without any model to show us their interconnections or the forces likely to reverse them. As a result, change itself comes to be seen as anarchic, even lunatic." - Alvin Toffler"In describing today's accelerating changes, the media fire blips of... more

Building engineers and real estate agents have seemingly become interchangeable in owners’ minds, as economics dominate hiring and retention decisions in property management. For the superintendent accustomed to keeping the building humming, the leasing, sales and paperwork expectations can be overwhelming. For the real estate agent more in tune with people management, standard building maintenance is a heavy responsibility.

This article demonstrates that building economic performance can be enhanced with green management, even on a budget.

Reporting from Dillingham, Alaska — It is an unfortunate coincidence of geography that this lush region of wild rivers, grassy tundra and windy sea is home to two competing treasures of almost unimaginable value: the world's largest sockeye salmon run, supporting a fishery worth $440 million a year; and in the hills behind it, a massive deposit of copper, molybdemum and gold worth at least $300 billion.
With that much money at stake, preventing the construction of what could be the largest open-pit mine in North America — at headwaters above Bristol Bay — seems an impossible task.
As Pebble Ltd. Partnership prepares to submit its permit application outlining what kind of mine it wants to build by late this year or early next, Bristol Bay fishermen are fighting a fierce advance assault, hoping to convince government decision-makers and the public that poisonous mine drainage and some of the world's last pristine salmon streams are a combination too risky to contemplate.Reporting from Dillingham, Alaska — It is an unfortunate coincidence of... more
