After enough work getting all our papers in order and plans approved to clear land the fun begins. Wednesday our excavator will start the difficult task of clearing the land and creating our driveway. we hope that this upcoming weekend we will be able to actually drive up the driveway to see the land taking shape.
Twenty years after the initial Montreal Protocol (for substances that deplete ozone layer) was made, we look at the progress that followed, thanks to the international cooperation of the developed world.
The UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon released a statement yesterday:
We were browsing the BBC news page and came across a topical story - which we thought we would share with everyone:
The most direct route through the Northwest Passage has opened up fully for the first time since records began, the European Space Agency (Esa) says.
The findings - based on satellite images - have raised concerns about the speed of global warming.
For the full story go to: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6995999.stm
Also go to the European Space Agency- they have more on this:

Today we made a lot of changes to the site. hopefully no more mistakes, let me know if you find one.
our final blueprints are due to show up tomorrow. once they come this whole things starts moving in hyper speed. they get approved, permits done and away we go.
we sent in part of the cost for the land clearing. pretty expensive. what would you think cost the most in clearing the land? the driveway. For real.
We wanted to allow everyone to participate in this project. Feel free to ask questions, post ideas, or just ramble about all the cool things you have found about being green. We will post to the blog as often as possible. If you have a blog question or concern please email blog@greenloghome.com
