Solar Homes and Big Winners

The wait is over, ladies and gentleman. We are finally announcing the big winners of the 'Tix 4 Tips' contest co-sponsored with our friends at Ecorazzi for the Live Earth Concert going down this Saturday, 7.7.07 at Giants Stadium. But that's not all we have on tap for today's show. In honor of tomorrow's independence day, we are talking with a guest from that great state of North Carolina who is helping Americans achieve energy independence with his award winning solar homes.

Today's Featured Radio Guests:

Mike Sykes - Founder and inventor of Enertia Building Systems, Grand Prize winner in the 2007 History Channel Modern Marvels Invent Now Challenge. Enertia® is a new technology for building houses so that they heat and cool themselves. This is achieved from the design, the orientation, and the materials of the home, rather than a furnace, heat pump, or air-conditioner. Three basic, millions-of-year-old principles of nature, combined with state-of-the-art windows, radiant coatings, and prefab manufacture, make it possible, and practical. The principles are inertia, thermal currents, and the energy capacity of wood.

Michael d'Estries - Co-editor and expert for Ecorazzi, the latest in green gossip.
