Brewed Fresh Daily

From Lev:

We are long overdue in having a broad regional conversation about a consolidated or even cloud-based approach to “Greening IT in Northeast Ohio”. Our IT data centers produce more CO2 then our airline industry. The silence in our region has been deafening.

Who’ll take responsibility to convene it?

Bytes From Lev: Greening IT in NEOhio

Brooklyn Centre has been chosen by NOACA as the site for one of four workshops in 2008 conducted by the National Center for Biking and Walking (NCBW).  NCBW will be conducting the four- hour workshop that will identify real-world problems and hands-on solutions for making our community a more pedestrian and bicycle-friendly place.

The workshop will include a powerpoint presentation, a walk through the neighborhood, breakout sessions, and a “next steps” action plan.

The workshop is free, and the public is invited to participate, but seats are limited.  Please contact Rudy Hauret and Gloria Ferris, coordinators for this event sponsored by Brooklyn Centre Community Association.

There are a few slots left so if you have the free time during the middle of the day, go to upcoming for the details.

I’ve spent the last few days in Milwaukee, and a couple of people pointed me to a great series of articles (and video) on biodiesel developments happening in the region. If you have a moment, check it out.
