We are co-founders of the Jamaica Plain Green House - a passivhaus demonstration project, rehabbing an old, abandoned, former neighborhood store in JP and creating an urban farm and apiary (see http://jpgreenhouse.org). The project will be featured on grist.org and the subject of a book. We are looking for innovative, carbon reduction devices and systems - particularly home grown in Mass and England to test out and feature in on-line "shows," and for which we are raising a package of funding and other resources to support. Other project include, for example, designing a residence revolving door, recreating a New England-area milpas (the highly efficient, sustainable Native American agriculatural practice of mixing maize, squash and beans, developed by the Mayans and taught by Squanto to the Priligrims); and creating a bicycle generator that our three kids (7, 9 and 11) will use to power their computer games. -- Seem like your alternative vehicle (excuse me, the alternative vehicle) would be a great addition to the mix. Give us a call at 617.435.4919. Best, Ken // Andree Zaleska & Ken Ward, cofounders; JP Green House, greenhousekp[at]gmail[dot]com. Roo, Great idea & we love it that you are in Mass!
