Frog's Leap Electric Co.
I like to pay attention to the things that come in the mail and we got a cool one yesterday from the Frog’s Leap Winery. They are proud that they converted their entire winery to solar power this year and sent out a secret decoder to show off. It has a pair of concentric pieces of paper and when you rotate the smaller top one a fact such as Even during a full Moon we can collect 5 - 6 kw and then the bottom has the result of that which is That’s enough power to light the winery.
Kudla, I know they are just a single organic farm and what good will a tiny winery do in the face of big agribusiness. Small long term expensive projects to reduce our fossil fuel dependance is all we know how to do right now. The people working on this project might learn a small new way to make the next project easier and if we keep doing that, there is a cliche there somewhere? I know I am naive but I can’t bring myself to believe that civilization as we know it is going will crumble while everyone watches, but it has happened before. I should be reading Long Emergency and not blogging this morning.
