Dave taught his first ecology class in 1970. After majoring in
Ecological Biology and Biosystematics at San Francisco State
University, he worked on experimental projects, first for NASA, and
then as a member of the Mother Earth News Eco Village alternative
building and alternative energy teams.
He has consulted for a wide array of

farmers, and companies interested in turning waste into valuable and
profitable products.

Recent work includes a feasibility study for a
macadamia growers’ cooperative in Mexico, and a water
harvesting/reforestation project in Antigua, West Indies. He is
working with a farming college connected to the government of Ghana to
develop alternative fuels, to train agricultural extension agents in
organic farming, and to design an ecological strategy to stop the
Sahara Desert from advancing.
He also recently inspired the city of
Urbana, Illinois, to hold a conference between builders, lenders,
developers, municipalities, building inspectors, architects, and
engineers, to coordinate the mainstreaming of natural building
technologies. He has helped the Ford Motor Company demonstrate
alcohol-fuel-powered vehicles at a series of U.S. events.
