Question by J P: Quickest (and least expensive)way to heat an above ground pool on a cool day? Solar Fish, Black Solar Heating?
Above Ground Pool. I am having a get together this weekend. The temp is going to drop into the mid 60’s. I hate to deal with the plastic solar covers (and I don’t think they work all that well).

Question by Bohemian_Garnet_Permaculturalist: New household wind turbine, VERY cool!?
Those who have read my Q/A before know that my husband works on the commercial wind turbines. You also know that we eventually plan to build our home totally off grid.
My husband is always doing research on homeowner sized wind turbines.

Cool Off And Save With An Energy Efficient Air Conditioning System
The rise in temperatures as a result of global warming is wreaking havoc not only on the environment but on us as well. We tend to get irritable when the temperature shoots up or on the opposite we get sluggish and refuse to do our chores because of the unbearable heat. Conserving energy is what we want and when we move around in a weather that is too hot, we sweat a lot and thus give out a lot of effort in finishing our tasks and burning [...]
