Bio

I am co-owner (along with my wife Annie) of Blue Rock Station LLC(www.bluerockstation.com), a sustainable living center that features the first Earthship (a 2,200 sq ft passive solar home constructed out of garbage) built east of the Mississippi, many straw bale buildings, a plastic bottle greenhouse, a solar shower, gardens, milk goats, lots of summer interns, and way too many cats.

In the years since establishing Blue Rock Station, more than 35,000 people have wandered through their living room – drawn by the vision of a truly sustainable lifestyle.

I also teach solar PV certification courses to industry as well as through a number of colleges and universities.  I have also written a number of PV textbooks.

Along with Annie, we host a weekly radio program on sustainability called “When the BioMass Hits the Wind Turbine” which is aired on WOUB (Athens, OH), WGRN (Columbus, OH) and is also syndicated through the Pacifica broadcasting network. You can also find it as a podcast where ever you get podcasts.
