Green Building One Piece at a Time: The Rebuilding Center

This episode features Shane Endicott, Founder and C.E.O. of Our
United Villages, the organization that runs Portland's
environmentally sound The Rebuilding Center. The Rebuilding Center
recycles used building and remodeling materials (everything from a
door knob to the kitchen sink to church pews to siding) by
re-selling them to builders for up to 90 percent less than market
value.

The show is guest-hosted by intern Alicia "Lish" Ng, who is leaving
the Portland Idealist office for graduate school at the the London
School of Oriental and African Studies.  Lish and Shane talk
about the value of having such a innovative resource in the
community, his early years, what it means to be a community leader,
and how The Rebuilding Center will benefit the community as
greening becomes ever more mainstream.

Lish, we thank you so much for your sound editing on this
