Real Goods: A Workshop at The Solar Living Institute

04:25 | Ryanne Hodson | Jul 6th, 2007 7:00am |

The Solar Living Institute, home of Real Goods (one of the first Green Catalogs), is like a big, green playground. The 12-acre plot was developed as a demonstration site for renewable and clean technologies like solar and wind power, green building and permaculture. We were excited to be able to spend some time on the campus while participating in a workshop on how to build an electric vehicle. Although the workshop turned out to be a wee bit overwhelming, we felt we got a pretty good primer into the world of electric vehicles. That said, we encourage y’all to take a workshop or class on some of these green ideas. Meeting people and gathering resources for getting started on this stuff is a good motivator for really making change.
