Chris Schaffner’s Resources
1. Climate Consultant - Free Software from UCLA Department of Architecture and Urban Design
"Climate Consultant is a simple to use, graphic-based computer program that helps architects, builders,
contractor, homeowners, and students understand their local climate. It uses annual 8760 hour EPW
format climate data that is made available at no cost by the Department of Energy for thousands of
weather stations around the world. Climate Consultant translates this raw climate data into dozens of
meaningful graphic displays"
http://www.energy-design-tools.aud.ucla.edu/
2. "Natural Capitalism - Creating the Next Industrial Revolution" - by Paul Hawken, Amory Lovins, L.
Hunter Lovins, 1999
"Most businesses still operate according to a world view that hasn't changed since the start of the
Industrial Revolution. Then, natural resources were abundant and labor was the limiting factor of
production. But now, there's a surplus of people, while natural capital natural resources and the
ecological systems that provide vital life-support services is scarce and relatively expensive. In this
groundbreaking blueprint for a new economy, three leading business visionaries explain how the world is
on the verge of a new industrial revolution. Natural Capitalism describes a future in which business and
environmental interests increasingly overlap, and in which companies can improve their bottom lines,
help solve environmental problems and feel better about what they do all at the same time. Citing
hundreds of compelling stories from a wide array of sectors, the book shows how to realize benefits both
for today's shareholders and for future generations and how, by firing the unproductive tons, gallons,
and kilowatt-hours, it's possible to keep the people who will foster the innovation that drives future
improvement."
