Energy Australia Open Day

On Saturday 28 Nov I attended The GREEN DREAM HOME OPEN DAY organised by the electricity provider Energy Australia and held at Energy Australia's Energy Efficiency Centre (Homebush Business Village, 12/11-21 Underwood Rd, Homebush). NSW Australia. If you live within striking distance of Sydney, the Centre is worth a visit.There are lots of hands on displays and exhibits which demonstrate and illustrate how a variety energy saving technologies work.

The event took the form of a seminar where two speakers gave talks and answered questions from the audience. Whilst the first speaker was entertaining, the second speaker, architect Caroline Pidcock was very informative. Her presentation was an overview of the various aspects which should be taken into consideration when undrtaking a sustainable building project.
The Pidcock website is well worth a look.

Sustainable Sea Change

A couple of baby-boomers will leave the big city of Sydney and move north to a coastal location where the climate is sub-tropical and the sea is in view.
Over the next few years they will design and build an environmentally friendly, passive-solar house using sustainable products and technologies.
A permaculture garden will supply vegetables and eggs.
This blog will attempt to progressively cover the possibilities, events and progress of this sustainable seachange.
