About Richard Register
Founder: The International Ecocity Conferences. Author: "Ecocities – Rebuilding Cities in Balance with Nature" and "World Rescue – an Economics Built on what We Build"

Richard is one of the world’s great theorists and authors on ecological city design and planning. He is also a practitioner with four decades of experience activating local projects, pushing establishment buttons and working with environmentalists and developers to get a better city built and running. Among his many “firsts,” he convened the first of the Ecocity International Conference Series in Berkeley, California, and coined the term “ecocity” as early as 1987.
He was founding president of Urban Ecology (1975) and founder and current president of Ecocity Builders (1992), both nonprofit educational organizations.

Richard illustrates his own writing, and his books are considered as pleasurable for his imaginative drawings as profound in their ecological urban philosophies and visions.
Richard is a frequent guest of organizations and conferences large and small in his home town, the San Francisco Bay Area, and around the world. He is a tireless advocate for the pedestrian city to save the world — by reducing automobile dependence, global warming, massive sprawl, ecological habitat fragmentation, air and water pollution and other harms.
