Desert Greenhouse
2008-09-07 10:56:00 The Sea Water GreenhouseQatar is considering introducing the innovative sea water greenhouse into its deserts: a desert greenhouse which utilizes sea and sun to provide a green alternative to desert farming. The Sea Water Greenhouse utilises, as is suggested by the name, sea water to cool greenhouses. In contrast to traditional desalination projects, which are both energy heavy and consume fossil fuels, the Desert Greenhouse uses the sun to distil the sea water. More sea water is used to cool the Greenhouse, resulting in a temperature 15 degrees lower than outside the Greenhouse. Meanwhile, a specially constructed roof allows light to pass though while removing much of the heat. The resulting rather steamy athmosphere - the greenhouse operates at around 90 % humidity has proved an excellent environment for growing plants. In the case of Qatar, solar power will be used to pump the water from the sea. This could have huge benefits for Qatar. In addition to the obvious benefits of incr...

GROW YOUR OWN GREENHOUSE
2008-07-22 16:42:00 I came across the brilliant 'Grow your own' Greenhouse at the 2008 RCA Design Products graduation show...The Greenhouse is a complete, hassle free and self-sufficient growing system for small city gardens and roof terraces.As the designer Jochem Faudet explains:'Food is one of our most basic needs, but in western society the knowledge of growing fruit and vegetables in your own garden is no longer a part of everyday live. There are many reasons why people do not grow their own vegetables, often due to a shortage of time, lack of space and the effort needed to learn the skills to grow your own food not being seen as worthwhile. On the other hand there are so many advantages to growing your own vegetables, a delicious and intense taste compared to supermarket vegetables, the enjoyment of watching your own plants growing, the money it saves, and the reassuring knowledge of self-sufficiency.'The fantastic thing about this 'This Grow Your Own' is that although it is comparable wi...

ELKAS Electricity Producing Greenhouse
2008-07-07 13:37:00 Elkas (the electricity supplying greenhouse) shows how to convert solar energy into electricity. In designing energy generating greenhouses the emphasis still lies in systems that supply low-grade forms of energy (i.e. warmth). The electricity generating greenhouse is aimed at catching the radiation that is not being used for crop growth and converting it in high grade power. The inteligent solution for this greenhouse is an integrated filter for rejecting near infrared radiation (NIR) and a solar energy delivery system. Cooled greenhouses are an important issue to cope with the combination of high global radiation and high outdoor temperatures. As a first measure, the spectral selective cover material, which prevents the entrance of NIR radiation, is investigated.

Water: An Important Greenhouse Supply
2008-04-25 04:19:00 Greenhouse supplies come in handy if you have a greenhouse. Some of these supplies are helpful and others are crucial. Water is a greenhouse supply that falls into the second category. If you have a greenhouse you will need to have a way to water the plants and flowers. Here are some options you can consider and ones to avoid when watering your greenhouse plants.The best way to water the plants in your greenhouse is the old-fashioned way - with a garden hose. By hand watering, you can give each plant the individual attention it needs. This way plants that dry out faster than others will get watered as they need it without overwatering the other plants. Watering each plant individually does take a fair amount of time each day. Some of us have the time and experience great pleasure in nurturing each plant on a daily basis. For those who vacation often or simply don't have the time, drip irrigation is another watering solution to consider.Drip irrigation systems are becoming more and ...
It is time for a new hobby: Greenhouse gardening
2008-04-24 16:01:00 For people who would like to do more gardening but live in a short growing season area, a hobby greenhouse is the answer. A hobby greenhouse is not large enough to produce vegetables or flowers on a commercial basis. It will, however, give you a place for a tomato plant or two and some fresh greens even if you live in the northern regions. Greenhouse enthusiasts even have their own association, called the Hobby Greenhouse Association, which publishes a quarterly magazine. The organization also sponsers events and helps individuals connect to get help with the aspect of gardening that they are interested in, whether it's growing cacti or saving seeds. If you are in the market for a hobby greenhouse, there are several types on the market. The smallest type is not large enough to walk into and must be accessed from the outside. It resembles an old-fashioned phone booth made all of glass and outfitted with shelves. This type is designed to fit as many plants as possible in as small a...

18 states file to force EPA to regulate greenhouse gas emissions
2008-04-07 05:06:00 Seventeen states are backing Massachusetts in a petition to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia that would force the EPA to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. Filed one year after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the EPA needed to decide on regulating vehicle emissions - a year in which the EPA failed to take any action - the petition asks that the court demand the EPA release a decision in the next 60 days. When Massachusetts took the EPA to court in 2006 to decide the issue, the senior attorney for the Sierra Club, David Bookbinder, told Newsweek that the Supreme Court would have to issue a clear ruling. "There's really no wiggle room. Either EPA has this authority or not. It's a very plain language case," he said at the time. A year and a half later, here we are. The states are: Arizona, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington and the District o...
