Greenbelt Alliance’s Sustainable Development Associate Marla Wilson and Campaign Organizer Ellie Casson will travel to Washington D.C. to speak at Rail-Volution 2011.

Five years ago, Anthony Chang and his wife, Wendy Wong, decided to intentionally change the way they were living.

In August, Greenbelt Alliance endorsed two developments: Cathedral Gardens in Oakland and Presidio El Camino in Santa Clara. Both developments will provide affordable homes located near transit.

“Conservation groups such as the Greenbelt Alliance support ‘in-fill’ development in Marin around transit hubs… It makes sense to design residential and commerical growth around these hubs. That’s what the Greenbelt Alliance concluded in a new report, ‘Grow Smart Bay Area.’”

“There is no way to reverse climate change without going after how we get around…There is a way to put in more housing while maintaining the character of these towns.”
