Green Buckeye

MORPC recently published the raw data from the regional brainstorming session they sponsored April 19. You can check them out on the MORPC website.

Some SRCO members attended, and there was quite a bit of discussion on the SRCO listserv about the World Cafe process used to generate participation. Many seemed to feel that this strengths-based approach to participatory planning was inadequate for communicating the seriousness of the impacts of peak oil combined with global climate change. I don't think that educating Central Ohioans about the nature of peak oil and global climate change was really the objective of the session, so I can't say it failed on that count.

Were you in attendance? What did you think of it?
