At the Build Saskatchewan Green conference we learned from 
Paul Hanley that we are already using 1.6 planets for 7.9 Billion people and that we are heading to 11 Billion by 2100. We need a get started with a new way of living!
Daniel Wallach that people in Greensburg RALLIED around a worthwhile cause to rebuild a town in Kansas that was total decimated  by tornado, and built it back up as a GEM that produces more energy than it consumes.
CMHC & Affinity Credit Union that there is a Business Case for Green
Laura De Carolis (Municipal Climate Action Center) We need to GET GOING .... we need ACTION!
Murray Guy (me)   Yes we can build Net 0 building at Net 0 additional cost using the latest LEAN & GREEN thinking as demonstrated on four current Net 0 projects.
Paul Blazer that Lean design & construction is enabling him to build a beautiful LEAN & GREEN Rammed Earth home for approximately the same cost as a traditional build.
Alfred Waugh that when we go back to basics of how we used to build building.  We can build cost effective beautiful buildings with natural elements, comfort and simple systems.
And from our Tree Hugger journalist  with attitude keynote Lloyd Alter we learn that if we design not so big, passive and with good design that Smart thermostats get bored as they have nothing to do! 
Awesome conference, Thank you to all that made this event possible.
I dedicate this article to all of the GREAT work of the Tree Huggers, we need you!
