float on: this little floating house docked on the chicago river + this solar-paneled home {click on image for a peek into chicago boat living}; both enlarge my imagination. here's a fantastic documentary directed by justin cerone: a peek into the world of sustainable energy + solar power{sustainability is defined as the endurance of systems + processes}. learn how the wave of the future is actually the ray of the future {get it?!}

whether we're harnessing the power of water, wind + solar energy; propagating the importance of planting trees like humanitarian + environmental activist wangari maathai; or reusing pre-loved clothes, our decisions matter.
