As a good American, I have no idea what I’ve just said — if any of our friends from north of the border can help me out, please do (and feel free to throw in a “Stupid American…”).<\/p>\n
The sustainable blogosphere buzzed right along through the holiday weekend. Green Car Congress reports <\/a> on the decision of “several Pima County, AZ, school districts” to start shifting to biodiesel school buses. WorldChanging has news<\/a> on off-shore wind farms in the UK, and notes (as does this piece<\/a> from Scotsman.com) that all isn’t smooth sailing there, either. More wind power news<\/a> from New Zealand via Alternative Energy Blog, as well as an announcement <\/a>that the Norwegians plan to invest in a sea-wave power plant. Resource Insights has thoughts <\/a>on “methane burps,” which may prove to be a huge threat as the globe warms. Treehugger gives space to an overview <\/a>of Builders without Borders and an homage<\/a> to Buckminster Fuller. And a new find, “Inventing for the Sustainable Planet,” gives a “hats off” <\/a>to Japanese cartoonist Hiroshi Takatsuki (otherwise known as “High Moon”).<\/p>\n Hope everyone’s having a restful holiday weekend, regardless of your faith or lack thereof… I laid around and ate too much…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As a good American, I have no idea what I’ve just said — if any of our friends from north of the border can help me out, please do (and [ … ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":56,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"\n
