US Green Building Council sued + windmill with no blades

Tis true.A mechanical systems designer, Henry Gifford, says "that USGBC is fraudulently misleading consumers and fraudulently misrepresenting energy performance of buildings certified under its LEED rating systems". Yikes!!!

-Really interesting story from Ecuador where the United Nation's trust fund has paid them to preserve the rainforest and NOT drill...ever, undereneath it.

-Green roofing is gaining popularity in Israel,

-Perhaps in cities which are right sizing, they can give this idea a try: use your swimming pool to farm fish. Urban farms are also sprouting up in Southern Florida, also gotta keep tabs on the newly created South Florida Food Policy Council . Oh and there's a new website for those looking for jobs in sustainable food.

Cool blades!
