The Environment & Energy Commission has partnered with local organizations to present the ninth annual Green Tuesday environmental lecture series scheduled for 7 to 8:30 p.m. each Tuesday in April at the Oak Park Public Library, 834 Lake St.
State of the Environment 2014: Village of Oak Park
Presenter: Michael Iversen / University of Illinois at Chicago
An annual report of performance metrics concerning energy, materials, and costs pertaining to the Village of Oak Park. Report is based on a methodology, Urbanized Ecosystems™ (UrbEcoSys™), which models specific urbanized areas as complex, dynamical ecosystems, based on scoping, inventorying and assessing its critical variables and relationships as represented by the flux and cyclic processes of energy, materials, costs and information. Such an approach is scalable and transferable to neighborhoods, communities and regional applications.
