Anthony Chang discussed green initiatives in his building, which emerged from dialogue between tenants and the landlord. These efforts led to the formation of a building sustainability committee and cultivated a culture increasingly aware of waste generation and energy use.

Chang presented these findings at the Garrison Institute's Climate, Buildings and Behavior Symposium in May 2010.

Dr. Shahzeen Attari explores global climate change, its causes, and effects. She emphasizes the U.S. responsibility to reduce carbon emissions, contrasting supply and demand-side solutions.

Her presentation, delivered at the Garrison Institute's Climate, Buildings and Behavior Symposium in May 2010, also covers public perception of energy use, effective methods for behavioral change, and her ongoing research. Further details are available in Part 2 of her presentation.

Dr. Shahzeen Attari's research highlights public perceptions of energy consumption, noting a preference for curtailment over efficiency as the primary method for reduction—a view contrary to

Dr. Shahzeen Attari's research highlights public perceptions of energy consumption, noting a preference for curtailment over efficiency as the primary method for reduction—a view contrary to expert findings.

Her work indicates that the public tends to slightly overestimate energy costs for low-energy behaviors while significantly underestimating them for high-energy behaviors. Attari also identified factors correlating with the accuracy of these predictions.

These findings were presented at the Garrison Institute's Climate, Buildings and Behavior Symposium in May 2010.

"Voices of Sustainability: All That We Share" defines "The Commons," a concept further explored by Jay Walljasper in his book of the same title. Walljasper, an award-winning writer and communications strategist, presented these ideas at the 2011 Commons Convergence in Portland, Oregon, sharing global stories for a better future.

Author of *The Great Neighborhood Book* and *Visionaries*, Walljasper's speech was videotaped by Ruth Ann Barrett, sustainability advocate and founder of www.earthsayers.tv.

The "Voices of Sustainability" video opened the Ceres Conference 2011, held May 11-12 in Oakland, California. It emphasized the concept of "built to last."
