From the Passivhaus Conference
Well today the Passivhaus consultants got together to discuss basic issues of the PH movement. It was a very eye opening thing to sit in a room with less than 100 folk and to realize that we represent the bulk of the movement in the US, a country of 250 million +. An average of 2 consultants per state. Wow do we have a large way to go. Passivhaus represents a quantum leap in energy efficiency in the US. We have such a long way to go it is truly amazing how far we have to go. We need to gird ourselves for a long hard slog. Get ready, Get set and go.
