Green Architecture Saving the World | Visiting Sustainable Buildings from Across the Planet

For some 50 years, I've argued that living green (solar power, electric cars, wind and water power, conservation, etc.) is the way to go. Today, I watched The 11th Hour, a 2007 movie featuring actor Leonardo DiCaprio and dozens of experts on the subject of saving the human race (never mind the planet; it'll survive, whether we do or not).

The movie makes its case for the environment, and it offers solutions. I wish they'd spent more time with the solutions, though. Some of them were unusual and interesting.

I've searched and found several web sites, including one on its Wikipedia page, and the Amazon page for the movie. I particularly love the huge footprint on the photo of the earth, although, in a way, it hurts my feelings.

(Sadly, the movie is no longer available on YouTube; it's listed as private.)
