- Brickbats over bricks
- Some more input from CalStar on their pending entry into the building materials market. I had asked about who set the standards for what is a "brick." The answer from CalStar: "ASTM is not the gatekeeper for new products - national and local building codes are....

- Kivalina lawsuit died but spawned similar claim

- What do you believe, your eyes or somebody's numbers?
- One Alaskan scientist has been flying over the Arctic regularly for years. He has seen the ice disappearing. He doesn't need computer projections to warn him. He doesn't need models showing global cooling...or global warming. Shall we call it global disagreement? Where once the airborne...

- Abomination or civil right? Solar clothes drying sparks heated argument
- Is it your right to dry your clothes outside? Is it your neighborhood's right to deny you solar drying rights? Here in this twisted land property rights v. property values, individual liberty v. community standards, energy efficiency v. status. This is all about an informal move among...

- Uncle Sam: less wasteful?
- President Obama has just solidified his lasting credentials...as being hopeful. He actually is trying to push energy efficiency inside the federal government, America's largest energy consumer.

- Big Oil greening up--is this a good thing?
- "Newsweek" would like you to believe it's a happy sign of the times to see global oil companies putting serious money into alternative fuels. They site investments by major oil companies in ehtanol. The "Newsweek" piece refers to more nations putting taxes or caps on carbon emissions,...

- Innovate...then wait...and wait
- I spoke with the CEO of an American company making state-of-engineering heat pumps. But his company can't get past the federal gatekeepers at the Department of Energy DOE. The Acadia system built and sold by Hallowell International just doesn't fit the old model for HVAC. I blogged...

- Cash for clunkers: one man's story
- THIS FROM AN EMAIL I JUST RECEIVED FROM ZDNET READER: I reluctantly traded a 1989 Ford Crown Victoria 24/32 mpg (city/highway)for a VW Jetta TDI which is supposed to get 29/41 mpg but actually delivers 38/50 mpg. I bought the Crown Vic used in 1991 with 10,000 miles and I...

- The answer my friend, is blowin' in the wind...
- Bob Dylan was right, as always. A Canadian study says auto emissions would be cut by 90% if we all drove plug-ins, and then re-charged them when the wind blows. Like, overnight. In places like Calgary where they did the study. Where the wind comes sweepin'...

- Having a bad air day?
- Wonder why so many people seem to be so dumb? Investing in real estate during a bubble? Smoking cigarettes? Falling for Internet scams? Maxing out credit cards at 20% interest? Well, some researchers may have some of the answer: bad air. Not "hair" but "air." Urban...

- Portugal's wave farm may be sunk

- Chinese drywall: more than you paid for?
