SUMMARY:Sustainability in Progress
DESCRIPTION:Title: Shifting the Status Quo of Development \nThere is a divide among sustainability advocates concerning urban development. At a glance\, it may seem that halting all development would be beneficial. However\, John urges us to look beyond the surface and consider the implications of how we develop our cities\, as well as the potential consequences of stopping development altogether. \n\nHe believes that we need to shift the status quo mindset of development. Rapid urbanization\, suburban sprawl\, and the degradation of natural resources have strained infrastructure\, exacerbated social inequalities\, and threatened environmental sustainability. New urban planning approaches foster deeper human connections\, mitigate climate change\, and build communities that are resilient\, equitable\, and prosperous for future generations. \nJohn’s passion and dedication is creating inspiring places that foster deeper connections with each other and our natural environment. With over two decades of experience integrating smart growth principles across various project types\, his strength is creating innovative and sustainable solutions\, engaging a wide variety of stakeholders\, and leading projects from vision to implementation and beyond. \nJohn earned his Landscape Architecture degree from Kansas State University. He has a passion and vested interest in projects that enrich the Colorado Springs area in which he and his wife of over twenty years have lived and raised their family of five. \nHis commitment extends to serving on multiple boards. Recognized for his impact\, he currently serves as Chair of the Colorado Springs Urban Renewal Authority and Co-Chair of ULI Southern Colorado. He helped found the Colorado Chapter of the Congress for the New Urbanism\, and Colorado Springs Urban Intervention. He is an Accredited New Urbanist\, Registered Landscape Architect\, and LEED Accredited Professional. \nSustainability in Progress is a monthly event to learn about sustainability and resiliency in the Pikes Peak Region. \n\n

SUMMARY:Sustainability in Progress
DESCRIPTION:Sustainability in Progress\nAug 21\, 2024     12pm – 1pm via Zoom \nLife Happens. Be Ready.\nIn these trying times\, we could all benefit from free training in effective coping to build our collective grit. The GRIT Program offers training in a brief conversational intervention that is used to support effective coping for those in your natural social network. The program is intended to function as one element within more comprehensive planning to help individuals and communities to be as resilient as they can be in the wake of stress-related problems or disasters. In times of disaster\, strengthening coping\, spreading support\, and providing resources can have a positive impact on healing and resilience for everyone. We’ll get the details from Dr. Lauren Shaw\, GRIT Program Manager at UCCS’ Lyda Hill Institute for Human Resilience. \nHere’s a link to register: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcucuGpqDosE9KbpycdFfUuRsv2kAxwPiYm
