Biogas moves up

I came across this article the other day and thought you'd enjoy it. It's an interesting view of how folks in a fascinating place are changing the way they live. After you read the story, click on the site's Home button. There are other interesting articles there.

And then there's this
A delicious question, asked by a tenant, and then I said to myself, "Wait! Didn't you write about something like this?" I went looking and found this. See? Sometimes, it actually is urine.
Living out of your car

Literally. Check this out. And it's pretty efficient. I think it needs a gigantic parking meter on the front lawn. By the way, this site has a very cool app for the iPhone. It makes me smile just about every day.
Great while it lasted
A while ago, the German government declared the solar business to be up and running and healthy as can be, so they pulled the subsidies and redirected the funding toward other energy-saving technologies, such as micro-CHP (Combined Heat and Power) units. Well, here's what happened.

LEED healthy?

Here's a provocative article for you. If a building is LEED Platinum, can it still be bad for the people who live or work there? Some confusion about what's written and what actually happens here. Who do you believe?
Other than this happening at a heating contractor's place,
it has nothing to do with heating, but it did make me think about the decisions we make from moment to moment and all that spooky stuff that can make one want to go hide under the bed (another decision). I guess we can chalk it all up to God's way of getting our attention. Zap!
The benefit of wood pellets

The good people of Sweden continue to fascinate me. They're always trying something new when it comes to the use of energy. This article has a headline that made me stop and think, and when I got to the part about how cleanly the wood pellets burn I had even more to consider. Will district heating play a larger role in our future? Time will tell, but I sure think so.
