On deconstruction - physically to help our region revitalize - and personally - at the hands of others.Submitted by Sudhir Kade on Mon, 02/23/2009 - 00:34.
Deconstruction is a wonderful opportunity to create revenue from what would typically be waste material that would be directed to landfill otherwise. The typical cost of demolition of a typical home in an underprivileged community often exceeds $8000. In addition, demolition needs to be accompanied with the use of excessive water - which is another form of waste - to ensure toxins like lead, asbestos, or mercury do not spew into the surrounding air, soil and water. When deconstructing, this toxicity spread and water use is circumvented.

The MedCon Plan and Planners were a Disgrace, the Process was Broken... what if anything has changed?Submitted by Norm Roulet on Mon, 02/16/2009 - 18:26.
The last time I saw “Citizen” Ed Hauser alive was at the October 8, 2008, Cuyahoga County Commissioners' public hearing on the proposed Medical Mart and Convention Center, aka MedCon.
Ed was as furious as I can ever remember seeing him, as he shouted "the process is broken". Ed was so right.

Preamble: Real Co-op for Open Food, Information and Community Development 2009Submitted by Norm Roulet on Tue, 02/10/2009 - 00:07.
In the Fall of 2008, I proposed to Cuyahoga County Commissioner Peter Lawson Jones that the local foods sector offers the people of Northeast Ohio $ billions in economic development opportunities that may be distributed to a huge percentage of our 1,000,000s of residents in very socially equitably ways. I also proposed similar opportunities are available in open source information and social computing. And I pointed out regional organizational, strategic, social and operational barriers to success and proposed specific solutions to maximize workforce and infrastructure development, massive scaling, and social equity.
New Grid for Renewable Energy Could Be CostlySubmitted by Charles Frost on Mon, 02/09/2009 - 14:13.
A substantial increase in the amount of electricity produced from renewable energy would require building a transmission system that would carry a price tag of up to $100 billion, according to a new study. The new system would be needed because the existing eastern grid couldn't handle the volume of power coming from the wind-producing states.

Good news, Gainesville Regional Utilities has announced that the Gainesville City Commission has unanimously approved the plan:

"Jitney" as fundraiser for green building in East ClevelandSubmitted by Pat on Sun, 01/25/2009 - 15:55.
East Cleveland Theater presents "Jitney" by August Wilson. At a ramshackle taxi depot, the middle-aged men who drive unlicensed gypsy cabs, or "jitneys," strive to find honor and accomplishment amidst a landscape of diminishing opportunity. When the station owner's estranged son returns from 20 years in prison, their reunion unleashes two decades of brutal, raw emotion.
