"Overall the long haul of life on this planet, it is the ecologists and not the bookkeepers of business, who are the ultimate accountants." –Steward Udall

The beginnings of a sustainable future could not have been possible without several people in the early years of ALTER, Harmony Homestead, and the MS3 program. Each individual who has passed through these projects and programs has had an impact on what exists today. It is important to acknowledge and thank those who contributed, while continuing in the quest to fulfill one man's vision that today is becoming a worldwide theme.
