Brad Lancaster is a dynamic teacher, consultant, and designer of
regenerative systems. He's taught throughout North America, Middle
East, Asia, Europe, Africa, and Australia; worked with the City of
Tucson and other municipalities to legalize, incentivize, and
provide guidance on water-harvesting systems, demonstration sites,
and policy; and designed edible rain-irrigated landscapes doubling
as flood control and community-building strategies for housing
developments and neighborhoods. Brad's aim is always to boost
communities' true health and wealth by using simple overlapping
strategies to augment the region's hydrology, ecosystems, and
economies--living systems upon which we depend.
Brad lives his talk on an oasis-like demonstration site he created
with his brother's family in downtown Tucson, Arizona. On this
eighth of an acre and surrounding public right-of-way, they harvest
100,000 gallons of rainwater a year where just 11 inches per year
fall from the sky. Brad is motivated in his work by the tens of
thousands of people he has helped inspire to do likewise, go
further, and continue our collective evolution.
"What a wonderful, enthusiastic book. Brad Lancaster lives what he preaches--a water-careful lifestyle that is all about more life."--Ben Haggard, author, sustainable systems designer and teacher
