Aknowledgments

First, we would like to thank our amazing contributors for sharing their stories with us: Amy, Taylor Arneson, Severine Baron, David Byrne, Deena Capparelli, Laura Cooper, the Greywater Guerrillas, Eva, John Howe, Suzanne Mackey, Ken & Lorie Mars, Mary McGilvray, Jean-Paul Monché, Nicholas Sammond, Elon Schoenholz, Maya Shetreat, and Claude Willey.

 

And then we must kneel in gratitude before our keen-eyed, patient and insightful beta-readers: Caroline Clerc, Bryn-Ane MacKinnon and Elon Schoenholz.

 

Before, during and after the writing of this book we’ve been inspired by the work of the following people and organizations. We offer this short list knowing we’re going to forget a lot of people. Once you put your special glasses on, you’ll see there’s so many smart people doing cool things out there that it’s hard to keep track. But we’d like to at least mention Nance Klehm, David Kahn, Steven Box, Enci, The Culture Club, Sandor Katz, Melinda Stone, Tara of Silver Lake Farms, Paul Mackey, Nick Taggart, the revolutionaries at the Eco Village, the Bike Kitchen and the Fallen Fruit collective. They’ve all shown us the way.

 

Thanks also to the visionaries behind Process Media: Jodi Wille and Adam Parfrey, for liking our blog and asking us if maybe we’d like to write a book.

 

And of course, where would we be without our moms? Thanks, Moms!
