Good to see such a thoughtful op-ed on the BD.
Wangari Maathai was certainly a lone voice with a vision who led where the rest of her peers, countrymen and world would only follow years later. A one woman campaign far preceded what became a "movement".
Conversely, over reliance on patronage and peer approval are some of the unfortunate qualities that pervade the Architectural Profession, often relegating its 'environmental' aspirations to tokenism.
We really could learn a lot from her.
