fossil fuels, we can limit global #heating to 1.5 °C (on average) above pre-industrial levels and mitigate the increasingly severe consequences of climate change. #Canada is a signatory to the Paris Agreement, and as such we should embrace our collective commitment to reduce greenhouse gas #emissions, in alignment with the #IPCC’s #scientific recommendations. Expanding fossil fuel #infrastructure would contradict our #international commitments and contribute to disastrous stresses on the...

#today working on 3 different talks for different audiences, though there may be some common #heating-related themes!

Will be visiting a school tomorrow to help it along the path to installing solar PV. The school site manager is keen, but there has been some sort of snafu that I hope to understand and resolve.

We're in a bit of a warm spell here in Southeastern #Vermont, which is something of a comfort to me this year, with my #heating oil tank nearly empty, and at least 6 weeks of heating season remaining.

I really do not want the tank to run dry, so I may need to shut off the furnace early this year, and rely on running up my electric bill with space heaters for a month.

I really need a much smaller apartment, with modern electrics, thicker walls and insulation, closer to downtown. #urbanism

#Hundertwasser #Museum in #Vienna

"1. an increase of #nature as an answer to overdevelopment in the landscape
2. life in #harmony with nature
3. forest and meadow air instead of "concrete air"
4. totally #green houses that can be walked upon
5. energy-saving houses, latently cool in summer, warm in winter
7. waste water and rainwater are purified in a natural way and are thus given back to nature as pure as the water was received", excerpt from Hundertwasser's manifesto "In the Meadow Hills", 1989/1996.

Titel: In the Meadow Hills. In order to provide an alternative to overdevelopment. Hundertwasser planned Meadow Hills in the 1980s, a housing development in northern Vienna. This community of energy-efficient houses nested into the landscape was designed to grow with the families that inhabit it. All buildings were to have green roofs to be used as meadows, forests, and vegetable gardens. The project was never realised in Vienna due to resistance from a local citizens' initiative that feared distrurbances caused by tourism to Hundertwasser's architecture marvel. As a different project, Hundertwasser's Rolling Hills concept was eventually realised in the 1990s, but not in the form of an urban housing development. Instead, it was further developed as a leisure complex for the Rogner Bad Blumau thermal spa in eastern Styria. There, Hundertwasser was able to construct buildings nested into a meadow landscape, the likes of which he had designed in the 1970s as prototypes of his visions of a life lived in harmony with nature, such as the Augenschlitzhaus (eye-slit house) and the Waldhofhaus (forest-courtyard house). 1-7 (see post) 8. granting of window rights 9. more quality of life for the neighbours, not just for the residents 10. an Austrian way out of the cul-de-sac of city planning which will be a precedent worldwide. Excerpt from Hundertwasser's mifesto "In the Meadow Hills", 1989/1996
"This is the house where for the first time in history human being and nature live together with equal rights. It was created by the artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser and the architect Josef Kawina and represents the starting point for artistic buildings by Hundertwasser in Austria and other countries. Today, above all, this is a place where millions of people from around the world become aware of their longing for a life in harmony with lurself and nature. From here they take new hope back to their homes to their contries."
