Econnovation Workshop “Unpeak Energy” |
|---|
Knoend and Scully Design invited John Humphrey from Sustainable Energy Partners to come speak about the array of clean energy projects that his company has undertaken. Following the talk, workshop participants will break into small groups to formulate ideas on how to tackle our energy crisis. At the end, each group presents their ideas generated within the hour.

Seattle (Sound) Magazine "The Green Party" |
|---|
May 26 and 27, 2007
The Gorge, Washington
SEP's Carbon Harmony service offset 125% of the carbon dioxide emitted during the 2 day event in George, Washington. By offsetting more carbon dioxide (CO2) than the festival created, the result is a net reduction in the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere which provides a positive effect on our climate.
The Sasquatch Festival wanted to raise the bar on carbon neutrality and compensated for all direct and indirect carbon emissions created from this event.
The show featured performances by Bjork, The Beastie Boys, Arcade Fire, Manu Chao, Interpol, Spoon, Dandy Warhols, Neko Case, M.I.A, Ozomatli, and many more great acts.
Cadalyst "Sustainable Solar Dynamics" |

John Humphrey, who cofounded the San Francisco-based consulting firm Sustainable Energy Partners, is devoted to clean energy pursuits in more ways than one. First and foremost, he's married to a scientist studying solar hydrogen production at Stanford University. He usually pedals his bike from his house near Golden Gate Park to the Mission District across town. From his office in a cafe-lined Bohemian neighborhood, he scrutinizes his clients' building plans and figures out cost-efficient methods to incorporate sustainable energy.
"I rarely receive 3D models from the architects I've worked with," observes Humphrey. "I'm often surprised at how much stuff gets done in 2D in the construction world, even today. ... What we usually do is take a floor plan and extrude up, or an elevation and extrude sideways, then fill in the gaps."
