It’s just rethinking how to put it back together again and express it in each individual case differently.” “We can either hold that and sell it or give it away, and we made a choice to give it away.” “The real value of that book was helping us clarify how we want it to work and then share that with others.” “Look, to see, to remember.”  Key Resources  - by Richard Powers     Learn More about John Boecker John is a green building expert and one of the founders of Seven Group.
