In her new book, Gray to Green Communities, Dana Bourland argues that we need to move away from a gray housing model to a green one, which values the health and well-being of residents, their communities, and the planet. Dana shows that we don’t have to choose between protecting our environment and providing quality housing for all. How can we achieve both climate goals and housing equity when residential buildings alone account for 20 percent of our carbon emissions? What are the inevitable trade-offs and challenges we need address? And where are the success stories we can turn to for inspiration and guidance? We’ll talk to Dana about these questions and the promise of her Gray to Green approach.
Dana is Senior Vice President for the Environment at The JPB Foundation. Before joining JPB, she was Vice President of Green Initiatives at Enterprise Community Partners, a nonprofit dedicated to “making well-designed homes affordable”. She developed and oversaw all aspects of Enterprise’s Green Communities program including the creation of the Green Communities Criteria and Enterprise’s Multifamily Retrofit Program.
