Yep, the dog days are here, and everyone’s moving a little slowly… including me! Fortunately, David Ferris at the Matter Network<\/a> was on top of his game on Friday, and published the ninth edition<\/a> of the Green Business Blog Carnival<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A bit of a slow week (see above), but some unique news and insights as always. If you’re interested in how the Chinese seem to be schooling the US on the creation of a green economy<\/a>, or the evolution of the Chief Sustainability Officer<\/a> position, or how opponents of California’s AB32<\/a> are misinforming the public about the “job-killing” nature of climate legislation, head on over…<\/p>\n

My favorite post this week came from David himself, and provides a good business lesson on resource management. David tells of his adventures drying out the basement with a dehumidifier<\/a>, and his recognition that all that water collected can be put to good use…<\/p>\n

On Friday, the Carnival heads back to Cleantechies, so make sure to stop by and check it out. If you’ve got a good green business blog post that like considered for inclusion in the Carnival, use the submission form<\/a> at Triplepundit. And if you’d like to host the Carnival on your own green blog, check out the schedule<\/a> for open dates…<\/p>\n

Looking for ways to beat the heat… efficiently? Check out our current listings of <\/em>energy efficient air conditioners<\/em><\/a>, <\/em>ENERGY STAR-rated dehumidifiers<\/em><\/a>, and even <\/em>LED lighting products<\/em><\/a> (which don’t produce the heat of conventional incandescent bulbs).<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
