Let’s change the conversation. Let’s talk about what we want - not what we don’t want. On January 2, the Recorder ran an article about Massachusetts solar energy program for 2010. It said that by the end of 2010, we should have about 50 megawatts (MW) of solar electric panels (photovoltaics) installed state-wide. - 50 MW biomass plant - 50 MW is what Franklin County needs to meet all of its electrical needs. (I discovered this interesting coincidence while doing research for the Greenfield Energy Audit.) |

It's About the What Kind of People We Want to Be
This is the moment at which we turn and face ourselves. Here, in the plastic corridors and crowded stalls, among impenetrable texts and withering procedures, humankind decides what it is and what it will become. It chooses whether to continue living as it has done, until it must make a wasteland of its home, or to stop and redefine itself. This is about much more than climate change. This is about us. |

Last week, I took a trip down to San Jose for West Coast Green, an environmentally-focused conference with an emphasis on sustainable building. One booth stood out from the crowd—Magnetic Air Cars, Inc.. The San Jose-based company claims that it is working on the world’s first fuel-less car (as opposed to the World’s Most Fuel Efficient Car). |
