Earth Day may not be till April 22 in the USA, but in some parts of the world, Earth Day is every day. One of my favorite earth-friendly communities is in Loreto Bay, Mexico where New Urbanist architects from Duany Plater-Zyberk & Company have designed the master plan for an energy-efficient, sustainable village.
