This Week in Moab – Sustainable Development and the 'Power of the Code'

On the latest This Week in Moab, a discussion about the housing crisis, and the ways building codes and development norms frequently undermine efforts to address the issues, while adding to climate woe. Host Christy Williams-Dunton speaks with David Eisenberg of the Development Center for Appropriate Technology (DCAT) in Tucson, Arizona. They discuss the 'power of the code' to address not just the housing crisis, but the climate crisis too, and how to give regulatory shape to sustainable development models. Eisenberg visited Moab recently as part of the Natural Building Alliance’s 2021 Rocky Mountain Natural Building Conference.
