E 'reached the final bill and therefore this year to public ridicule our consumption to heat the house. As with last year's survey (which I recommend to read for those who want to deepen it) I turned around in m3 of methane to have comparable data. Despite the harsh winter, absolutely not comparable to last year, consumption decreased and returned values \u200b\u200bof 2007. My daily practices have not changed, certainly roof insulation has had its good effects. I assume that this figure will stabilize at the moment it is difficult to succeed in getting less so with the same weather conditions.
In any case I think a ottimo risultato passare da quasi 3500 m3 per anno di due persone che vivevano la casa come un albergo ai 1300 m3 di oggi con 3 persone che la casa la vivono veramente.
L'inziativa di Caterpillar di Radio due la conosciamo tutti. Quest'anno hanno deciso di fare un passo aventi e di proporre un’ accensione virtuosa all’insegna dello sviluppo delle energie rinnovabili.
In questi anni abbiamo imparato a risparmiare, ora impariamo a produrre meglio e a pretendere energia pulita. Allo stadio attuale della ricerca tecnologica è già possibile produrre energia con il sole, il vento, il mare, il calore della terreno o con le biomasse. Facendo appello all’inesauribile ingegno italico invitiamo tutti, dagli studenti ai precari, dalle aziende in crisi alle amministrazioni comunali, a misurarsi con la green economy adottando un sistema pulito per accendere tutti insieme le luci il 12 febbraio 2010 . L’intento è duplice: da un lato verificare in prima persona che le tecnologie attualmente disponibili sono efficaci e rappresentano alternative realistiche, dall’altro dare un segnale simbolico di fiducia nelle energie rinnovabili e nello sviluppo di un modello di economia sostenibile. In the squares of all Italy will turn off lights "virtuous" powered by renewable energy or efficient use of creative demonstrations, to witness the transition from a collapsing to a management more "enlightened" of our future . To tell this feast of clean energy, February 12 Caterpillar will air exceptionally Markets Trajan in Rome , involving citizens, schools, institutions and associations in a festival of lights beautiful, creative and clean , devised to hoc, with a final concert strictly zero impact.
For a couple of years I am posed the problem. This year while I was raising the cobwebs in the house I was struck by the classic "stroke of genius," as Newton's apple. "But why the hell not I remove the snow from the panels when it snows?". The discovery of hot words. Until then I never thought that in the days when the snow settles on my roof panels and solar energy do not produce heat less water. At first I used the same tool that you use to clean the cobwebs. Then I replaced the final with an old broom, a little more comfortable.
assure that all jobs are done in full compliance with safety laws and my height phobia: I have a trap door that opens in the middle of the panels. I can clean them with a comfortable dall'inteno without having to leave the hatch on the roof. Fax handles allow me to get this far in the more inaccessible areas. In the middle of photovoltaic fetish I am also filmed.
an eco-village in Umbria is rising sun. The idea of \u200b\u200bliving in a place like this is fascinating. For my character, but this is my limit, but I worry about the small neighborhood that is created with my own kind, with the community. In many groups who call themselves eco-fair-ethical-etc .. I saw the same mechanisms of normal society (self-interest, the protagonists, the epitome, the exaltation of the obvious, the exaltation of "tout court", ...). But then again, this is my limit. For now I can go up to help Max (for a couple of days) to pick olives. I do not know the community that is setting up this eco-village. That alone, however, the idea deserves to be shared. E 'goes against all logic to present. The commitment and courage to create such a project is certainly complex and should definitely be rewarded with the distribution. If I have neighbors I have in them assholes Ecovillage like this.
Ecovillage Solar a different idea of \u200b\u200bhome, energy, living in the nature and relations between neighbors home. Finally we're off! After 9 months of work, meetings with the town of Gubbio and Perugia, geologists, architects, engineers, builders and people interested in buying a house with seismic energy insignificant, we are pleased to announce that we have come to take off the project. The initial project was significantly changed and there finally seems satisfactory.
Where Umbria town of Perugia, a beautiful valley that runs along the course of a stream. Green to the eye, in the hills. Woods and olive groves. The Ecovillage has around 40 million square meters of greenery. If you do not like the bucolic life is not for you. All is located 8 km from the paved road 12 from tobacco, 14 from the E45 motorway, 30 km from Umberleigh, 40 from Perugia.
Case ecological The buildings will be environmentally friendly, with thermal insulation, solar panels, dual water system, rainwater harvesting, etc. ... Each module consists of 2000 square meters of garden, vegetable garden in which 50, 50 orchards, the rest of the olive trees, meadows and forest pastures. gardens and orchards will have a common system of drip irrigation timer. Each family will then have sufficient land for their food requirements, which can be used directly or to outsource to any horticulturist in return for the harvest.
DIY Thanks allaiuto essential Banca Etica and the willingness expressed by the new mayor of Perugia, Wladimiro Jugs, we also 16 housing units on DIY unarea whose target will be changed from agricultural to urban housing, so buyers will buy agricultural land at no cost and will incur only the cost of building materials and design. This offer however, is limited to those people who built the first house and have specific income requirements specified by the city of Perugia on who has the right to have benefits for the home. It is essential that the group of homebuilders organizes itself. Read here
