Principal Zucker Featured in National Geographic’s Green Guide  PRESCOTT, AZ- Due to his
longstanding commitment to sustainability, principal Jeffrey Zucker was
recently solicited by National Geographic to provide a personal
anecdote for inclusion in the National Geographic's Green Guide article
entitled ‘Mistakes of the Masters’. Written to help homebuilders
learn from the mistakes of industry leaders in green design and
construction from across the US, the author cites rapidly changing
technologies and materials as an additional challenge when it comes to
green building.Written with "today's conscious consumer" in mind, National Geographic's Green Guide has become a respected on-line resource for practical advice that makes going green a feasible and comprehensible process. Zucker was honored by the request from National Geographic, despite the article's less than glorious headline. “Sometimes mistakes can be viewed in a positive light,” says Zucker, “especially when your experience can help people with future projects.” Zucker compares his experience with two personal building projects in the article. A short, entertaining read, ‘Mistakes of the Masters’ was received well and invitations for future National Geographic articles are forthcoming. Links: Mistakes Of The Masters Jeffrey L.

More recently, his commitment to conserving resources and fostering community led him to create the first cohousing community in Arizona: Manzanita Village. |
