Video:My (new) Camera

Click To Play YouTube is full of stuff like this so this here is my turn to indulge... I got myself a new MiniDV video camera today -- my very first video camera -- and I just had to explore its potential by creating a video clip, roughly editing it and publishing it webside so that I can impose it on an expectant populace. So I got a Canon MD120 and I'm negotiating the learning curve. Early reports indicate that all the...

Making a natural swimming pool and aquacultural waterhole

Today I finally attacked the natural swimming pool project with considered success within my reach.I had been dealing with a major water quality problem but after I not only got plants but also Creek Guppies to live in my adjusted water I am now ready to proceed.The main task is to generate enough plant life to cover one half of the pond surface area. This is the quotient that will purportedly ecologically cleanse the water of nitrates and algae. Because of our situation in the sub tropics I ...

PERMACULTURE & PEAK OIL: Beyond 'Sustainability'

David Holmgren is co-originator (with Bill Mollison) of the permaculture concept and author of the recent book, PERMACULTURE: Principles and Pathways Beyond Sustainability.

A major Blimp to beat carbon emit

The always very useful EcoGeek has a thoughtful post on flying: 9 Steps to Cheaper Greener Flight Step #8 caught my attention big time: I think airships deserve a second chance. They do not require any energy to keep them aloft, and while they travel at a fraction of the speed of airplanes, they can move significantly faster than cars, up to 150 mph, without having to follow roads. Depending on their size, a modern airship could be significantly more energy efficient than even a Greyhound bus (c...
