		<description><![CDATA[
LED lighting is the future. This is going to reduce our electric consumption in a big way.

		<title>Reducing Energy Bill to $0 a Month</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a guy who is totally off the power grid, with all the modern day amenities, but living in a solar-hydrogen and geo-thermally powered home.

		<title>Standby Power &#8211; leaky electricity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[All those devices on stand-by, like your microwave, DVD player and TV, are idol using power even when they&#8217;re not in use.

		<title>The price of gas &amp; oil</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

 

These prices make alternate fuels seem reasonable. Some people hope that gas will climb to $10 a gallon or more, so that people will be really ready to adopt new technologies which let us do more for less.

		<title>L.E.D &#8211; the future of lighting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ These light emitting diodes bulbs fit right into a regular light bulb socket but they only use 1 watt of power! Not only that, they only last 100,000 + hours (that&#8217;s 11 1/2 years) before you need to change them. Of course, they only use 1/100th the power of a regular bulb and they [...]]]></description>

		<title>Recycling Paper</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
They used to say that it couldn&#8217;t be done. However, 56 percent of the paper consumed in the U.S. during 2007 was recovered for recycling — this was an all-time high. That&#8217;s nearly 360 pounds of paper for each man, woman, and child in America.  (EPA, 2008) That&#8217;s 63 million tons of recycled paper. [...]]]></description>
