Serious Materials specializes in cleantech materials that require minimal energy to manufacture and utilize in homes. Their EcoRock material is functionally equivalent to conventional drywall technology, but requires virtually no energy to manufacture, and their extremely high-insulating window technology requires significantly less energy consumption during heating and cooling. These could have a tremendous impact on the environment, since currently 52% of CO2 emissions are from the "built environment." In this interview, I sit down with Kevin Surace, CEO of Serious Materials, and he describes their technology, and also gives his take on the energy crisis and how cleantech building materials can significantly contribute to addressing the problem. ]]> Wed, 16 Jul 2008 12:01:37 -0400 Episode 10 - Serious Materials 10472925 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/cleantech-finance-investment-in-california-bob-oconnor/10472925/

This recipe was inspired by Anthony, aka the Raw Model, and his nifty list of 5 things to eat every day for health and beauty. It was a well-intentioned soup, simple and unassuming, comprised of some of my very favorite things to eat, all in one convenient bowl. What we ended up with however, was a watery bowl of grayish-green horror, with a crime-scene chili swirl. Sorry Anthony. Despite the soup's tragic disposition, the episode may be worth a check-out, if nothing more than as a cautionary tale. "What not to do with grapefruits." The music, by our friend Justin Winokur , is great, and there is a healthy dose of nervous laughs to accompany. If we're still friends after you watch this, consider tuning in next week.

Happy Lunar New Year! February 7, 2008 begins the year of the Rat, the first year of the Chinese zodiac, a time of activity and renewal. Today we’ll take you on a quick tour of lunar new year basics, factoids, and food traditions. It is said that this is a good year to make a fresh start, and after the year we’ve had, we couldn’t agree more! As uncertified joy practitioners, we here at Freshtopia.net love a good reason to celebrate and eat some delicious food. So why not wear a little red, do a spot of cleaning (a lunar new year tradition), bring some fresh blossoms into your home and enjoy some healthy, auspicious fruits and vegetables? In addition to tossing a little green, Tanja put together a wonderful, earthy, spicy parsnip noodle salad for this episode. We’ll be putting the recipe in the next edition of the Freshtopian, so if you haven’t already signed up, do so by entering your preferred address in the field at the site’s upper-right.Tags: chinese new year, lunar new year, year of the rat ]]> Wed, 06 Feb 2008 18:32:39 -0500 Year Of The Rat 6607829 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/blueenergy-focused-on-sustainable-development/6607829/

San Francisco-based blueEnergy provides sustainable energy services to isolated communities in Nicaragua. Mathias Craig, executive director and chairman of the board of the nonprofit corporation, was on-hand last year to receive the prestigious Accenture Economic Development Award at the Tech Museum Awards, presented by Aplied Materials. He spoke to PodTech for this video podcast, live at the Tech Museum. blueEnergy brings electrification to remote regions by building power systems that convert energy from wind turbines to battery power. Their efforts have brought lighting and refrigeration to towns along the Caribbean coast on Nicaragua, where less than 20 percent of the population has ready access to electricity. Their systems are built from scratch, relying on local labor that ends up providing training of local laborers, increasing skills and local economic opportunities, while providing a critical necessity for continued economic development through electricity. Long before his efforts in Nicaragua earned him and his growing company high-profile status as one of CNN's "Community Crusader" 2007 Heroes, Craig and his brother were aware of the need for electricity in rural Nicaragua. Their mother, a linguist, spent time in the remote region, where only about 20 percent of the settlements have electrification. Check out video of the award presentation at the Tech Awards, as well as links to lots of coverage of blueEnergy's efforts. And of course, check out Mathias's blog, on socialedge.org.

This episode would probably be better titled "Sage-Pistachio Pesto", but the allure and onomatopoeia possibilities of the word squash were too many to avoid. This recipe is another winner. We originally shot this episode before we left on our cross-country train trip, but we had the dish again last night and I can honestly say it's even better the second time. I'll be asking for this one again soon. The episode calls for shredded butternut squash as a base, though after trying it over shredded parsnip last night, I have a slight preference for the latter. Sage-Pistachio Pesto: 1/2 Cup fresh sage 1/2 Cup raw pistachios 1/3 Cup olive oil 1 small clove garlic 1 T nutritional yeast Peel, de-vein, and chop garlic. Add all pesto ingredients to food processor and blend to desired consistency. Serve over julienned butternut squash, or the shredded vegetable of your choice.
