Straw is Green

I'm spending a few weeks in Carbondale, CO, down the road from Aspen, and there's great interest here in enviro-friendly homes. Big deals include straw bale construction and photo-voltaic cells to capture the abundant sunshine for energy. A local outfit, Solar Energy International, gives regular workshops on such things. Interested? Call 'em at 970-963-8855 or e-mail them: sei@solarenergy.org.
