  • ware of intensifying world challenges and the basic need of people to feed themselves, we have been working for 40 years to develop an elegant, small-scale agricultural system — GROW BIOINTENSIVE® Sustainable Mini-Farming — that when practiced correctly, nurtures healthy soil fertility, produces high yields, conserves resources and can be used successfully by almost everyone. Our goal is to help this system be known and used locally...on a worldwide basis.

    John Jeavons has been doing this work for over 30 years. I studied with him In Northern California. I found it fascinating that he spoke at Google in Cali recently. Even though his method is not technology intensive it is science based and is feeding the world in many ways.

    I studied with John many years ago. His book Backyard Homestead is one of the best books for back yard gardeners!!

    This paper addresses the sustainability of sea water cooled air conditioning systems. Water cooled air conditioning systems are more efficient and ecologically friendly than air cooled systems. But with the scarcity of fresh water and initial cost compared with other systems if sea water is a viable alternative.
