Meetup: Trip to Long Island Green Dome

Kevin Shea has invited us to visit his off-the-grid Long Island Green Dome! We'll carpool out there to lunch and explore the various methods he has used to produce his own heat and electricity, conserve water, and find out what troubles he has encountered along the way. Should be a lot of fun, and especially interesting to people considering their own energy reducing or energy producing projects.

Find out how he installed his own solar panels for electric, geothermal system for heating and cooling, and wind power generation.

The dome is super energy efficient, and sells power into the grid now. We'll even get to check out the radiant heat floors, low flow toilets, a waterless urinal, a system that captures hot water from the shower and recirculates it for heat, and so much more.

We'll meet at noon at the dome, tour the property... read more and RSVP

The Dome is in Baiting Hollow, NY
