Smart City...

Smart City is a weekly, hour-long public radio talk show that takes an in-depth look at urban life, the people, places, ideas and trends shaping cities. Host Carol Coletta talks with national and international public policy experts, elected officials, economists, business leaders, artists, developers, planners and others for a penetrating discussion of urban issues.

This weekend...

• Sustainability is the new imperative for urban leaders. And now there is a new way to encourage and even measure a community's sustainability. It's called Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design for Neighborhood Development -- LEED-ND for short - and it extends criteria for green building to neighborhoods. Jennifer Henry from the U.S. Green Building Council is with us to talk about the new guidelines and the impact they will have on cities.
  

• Also with us is Dr. Helen Mulligan who has been exploring ways that cities, particularly older industrial cities, can take advantage of the growing interest in green technologies to fuel local economic development. Helen is a director of Cambridge Architectural Research Limited.

Listen to host Carol Colletta - list of additional stations/times - 7pm Sunday on WNED - 970 in Buffalo, NY. Past Shows are archived and the newsletter is published regularly.
