a note about Stuff

My last couple of posts have been less about building houses and more about other things like energy. Sorry for that. I’ll try and keep my postings specific to your own house plans. However, I need to indulge myself one last time to tell you about a clip of the big picture. I can blog about specifics in building greener all day long but, in the end, it eventually leads us to discover what’s really driving this system of buy and waste. Annie Leonard, activist and co-founder of Global Anti- Incinerator Alliance, hosts a film that breifly (about 20 mins long) explains the problem of our linear production-to-waste system. This is the kind of thing that we want to avoid with our houses. Watch it now and pass it along.
