  • Check the numbers!

    When shopping for refrigerators, make sure you look at the actual kilowatts used, instead of just the energy star rating. The energy star rating is calculated based on models of similar size and design. You may find that a non-energy star refrigerator in the standard design uses much less electricity than a side by side energy star refrigerator.

  • Beer growlers

    You can apply the local dairys' solutions to beer, too. If you live near a micro-brewery, you can buy and reuse their growlers. Instead of buying several bottles, buy one jug and fill (and refill) it up with their locally produced beer. Fabulous solution.On Umbra on returnable bottles posted 2 years, 6 months ago 10 Responses

  • Friedman is a realist

    From my read of Friedman's column, he is saying that since coal is abundant and cheap, it's going to get used. Thus, he advocates investing in clean coal technology so that when it is used (because it's bound to be), it isn't polluting like it could. Friedman knows the consequenses; throughout the column he describes how the widescale use of coal will greatly exacerbate global warming. Nevertheless, coal is looking more and more attractive to those who want an affordable and domestic energy source. Friedman recognizes that reality and is offering a solution to clean up coal.
