It is intentionally a concise publication (96 pages) and graphically rich, so that it is an attractive and easy read by a broad demographic, not just those already into sustainability. It fills a unique and important niche—taking the plethora of information and synthesizing it into a very accessible volume.
A new open source web portal into “all things sustainable” will accompany the book launch. The site will be wiki and user-updated, and will be updated on a continuous basis. The online pdf version of the SourceBook will be available free of charge; it will have active links to videos, articles and websites, and have a searchable index for information and resources.
