[Greenbuilding] Link to Identifying Affordable Net-Zero-Energy Housing Solutions

[Gordon Howell -- Howell Mayhew Engineering]

My Green Building List colleagues:

With my previous Green Building List submission regarding the recent 
report, "Identifying Affordable Net-Zero-Energy Housing Solutions" by 
Gary Proskiw, Proskiw Engineering <pel at mymts.net> in Winnipeg, I had 
attached a copy of the report.  However, I see that the attachment 
was removed, so I have now put the paper onto my web space for you to 
download.  You can download it from 
<http://www.hme.ca/reports/Identifying_Affordable_Net-Zero-Energy_Housing_Solutions.pdf> 
.  I would look forward to any discussion arising from this document.

--------------
I appreciate the list's short discussion about the phrase "cheers"... 
and the acronym that I playfully suggested for it.  I appreciate that 
cheers can mean different things to different people, which is 
great...  My acronym is intended to encourage Canadians and yet not 
leave any others discouraged.  The "C" for example, could mean 
Canadians, Cubans, Chinese, Cambodians, Camerounians (there are 22 
countries beginning with "C"), or even people who are candle-stick 
makers (!) or cooks.

Cheers (which means Canadians Have Embraced Energy-efficiency & 
Renewable-energy Systems),
Cheers (which means Canada's Health depends on Energy Efficiency and 
Renewable-energy Systems),
or even
Cheers (which means a Company's Health depends on an Employees' 
Effective Reward System),
--------------

Cheers (May much cheer be with us all),
