Welcome!

You are now reading the very first post on the Guild’s new Ecobuilding Times blog. The decision to take our newsletter online is a sign of the times of course, but we are also interested in exploring new ways to engage our members. This blog does away with sporadic calls for newsletter submissions and their associated deadlines, and instead allows for the constant flow of information relevant to all our members. We believe communication at this level will be critical to the ongoing success of the Guild as we maneuver our way through changes to the website, Green Pages and formulate our strategic plan.

We expect this blog to evolve over the coming months, but the idea is to keep it simple in design and rich in content. This blog will be written by members, for members, so there’s no professional journalism required. If you are interested in contributing to the Ecobuilding Times on a regular basis, let us know and we’ll sign you up today. Otherwise email ideas and stories to ecobuildingtimes@ecobuilding.org. And please, no marketing or self-proclamations of greenness, that’s what the Green Pages are for.
