BP Solar Decathlon

We look forward to the day when Fuller can participate in cool projects that not only up his cool factor but increases his education, lets him show off his knowledge, and gives back to the world. I know Damon dreams of making bio-diesel and would love a helper (that isn't me). Maybe someday Fuller can participate in the Solar Decathlon.

The competition occurs every other year and right now the BP Solar Decathlon is in its seventh day.

Twenty teams are currently at the National Mall in Washington, D.C where a solar village has been built. The village consists of solar houses brought by the teams so they can compete in ten different contests. (As of yesterday, Maryland was in the lead!)

Alternate energy is really something we have enjoyed learning about and really hope someday to be able to put more of it into our lives. BP, the decathlon sponsor, has some great information on alternative energy. I'm glad these students are participating in such an important activity to help make clean energy. Maybe someday Fuller can too.
