[Greenbuilding] Fwd: Greenbuilding Digest, Vol 5, Issue 4

[Douglas Sauber]

For recycling wood, you may want to try local landscaping companies, if they have a chipper, they might be able to use the wood - as long as there isn't any metal or glue on it.

There are probably folks on the list who are better versed in FLW's 
work, but I know that he designed at least one terrific solar home. I 
can't remember the name of it now, but it is a semi-circular house set 
into the ground, with a stone-lined semicircular courtyard in front, 
completing the circle and creating a lovely microclimate for the living 
space. The living space is open, with all south glazing and bermed to 
the north.

You could post it to your local Freecycle group and see if anyone wants 
the scraps:
http://www.freecycle.org/ In general, building supplies are highly 
valued there.
