Dr. Christine Glaser is a founder of Bloomington's Center for Sustainable Living and the innovator behind the annual Simply Living Fair. Her lecture on "Green Cities, Green Economics" introduces a definition of sustainability that has been used by local businesses as well as local government entities to assess their current impact on the environment and to measure their progress towards reducing this impact, and then assesses this approach in the larger framework of economic development. This lecture was co-sponsored by the Center for Sustainable Living and recorded live on location for WFHB at the Monroe County Public Library on April 25th, 2005. "Standing Room Only" amplifies voices not adequately represented in mainstream media to help raise public consciousness of issues affecting life in south central Indiana and beyond.
