I can't wait to look through the guide. I've focused a lot on energy saving products on my blog and Popular Science has given me some great products and technology to write blogs about.

The goal of Mapawatt Blog is the same as the Green Home Guide: getting readers to understand that saving energy, the environment, and money are all related!

I can hardly wait to start building some solar hot water heaters, Ive been rounding up material to build one. Now, all I need is info on building the whole system ! I plan to use it in my cabin in Tennessee, along with solar P.V.s and a new type of wind turbine that's due to come to market later this year.so hopefuly I can not only go Green, but build as much of the system as possible to save some "Green" but with the help of "Pop Sci"D I Y this is do able

that is something i should try.

Thanks to PopSci for putting this guide together! I learned several new things from it, but was particularly interested in the sand bed house. I've been searching for more details on that without too much luck. (most of what I find is about 2' of sand under floors as thermal mass) If anyone has good links, please share them.

Oh, one note on the Zinio format... really not too happy with that. I've forwarded pointers to the guide to two people that haven't been able to read it. One runs OpenBSD, not sure what the issue was for the other. Open standards such as html, Acrobat, jpeg and even ASCII text are much more useful for sharing information. I was even having trouble navigating the guide using the Zinio program - too many buttons to click on to view all the content.

Another great green activity your readers would enjoy is to grow a TickleMe Plant from seeds and then watching the plant MOVE when Tickled! As a first grade teacher I no longer plant Lima beans, as the growing of this interactive plant, proved to be much more exciting and educational for my student's.
I found my supplies for a classroom kit at www.ticklemeplant.com but they also sell individual greenhouses and even party favors, with everything you need to grow your own TickleMe Plant from seeds. I assure you your kids will be more excited about gardening, and its just fun to watch the expressions of the faces of children (and even adults) when they see the plant close its leaves and droop when tickled,

You can really save a lot of money following this guide! I especially like the low flush toilets because that really makes a big impact. I'm a huge advocate of GREEN :)
