Edward Mazria was a pioneer in passive solar energy developments in the 1970s writing one of the classic references on that technology, "The Passive Solar Energy Book" (Rodale Press, 1979). I think more than a few architects have been good with going green for some time now but unfortunately their customers are not so much inclined. Interesting videos and posters on this site.

Architecture 2030 - Climate Change, Global Warming, and the Built Environment

"Architecture 2030, a non-profit, non-partisan and independent organization, was established in response to the global-warming crisis by architect Edward Mazria in 2002. 2030’s mission is to rapidly transform the US and global Building Sector from the major contributor of greenhouse gas emissions to a central part of the solution to the global-warming crisis. Our goal is straightforward: to achieve a dramatic reduction in the global-warming-causing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of the Building Sector by changing the way buildings and developments are planned, designed and constructed."

Of related interest, "Post Carbon Cities".

"This website provides a valuable set of resources on energy and climate change, designed specifically for the people who work with and for local governments."
