I wanted to introduce a fine young man who will be adding content to the site, Giovanni a.k.a. Sustainable G, , who lacking any real purpose has decided to thwap away at a keyboard here at Sustainable Schmidt aggregating content on green building for you.  Treat him well, and if you come across any gobs of green information our community might find useful, link it to him at any time.

Not everyone believes in climate change.   Read this New York Times article to find out what some politicians want to do to the EPA.
