The Big Idea

Folly by definition is a foolish action or idea, the word absurdity and phrase "lack of sense" seem to continually arise. But what would life be like without these follies? Why not embrace these ideas and get a little nutty! This is my journal for those adventures, and along the way I hope to meet new people, take the path less traveled, have some fun, and spread the story of this sustainable journey we call life! Here you’ll find short anecdotes about my life, links to enlightenment, and opinions on how to have fun! I would love to hear about your folly, so feel free to e-mail me, I might just post them, and thanks for visiting!

New Belgium's Founder Goes Energy Neutral


Here is a great link to a new posting on New Belgium's Blog, "The Tinkerer" which talks about the easy things every one of us can do to help get closer to being energy neutral. The exciting thing about Jeff's ideas here are that they are things that everyone can do. He is not talking about installing wind turbines on the roof, or a hydroelectric dam in the canal in the back yard, but just about the everyday things we have plugged in that actually take a lot of energy even when not in use. So have a look, and walk around your house and think about all the things that you may be able to unplug! Not into sustainability for environmental reasons, just give this a shot then and see how it impacts your wallet when that next utilities bill rolls on in! The benefits can be huge!!
