Solar roof tiles

[andygates]

Here's just the sort of home-generation idea that we need: solar roof tiles from SRS Energy.  They are supplied just like ordinary pantiles, and they are installed by roofers, just like ordinary pantiles - not by some expensive tech guy.  Details are a bit thin but they look just awesome to me.

This is the kind of thing which will make the passive home - a building that just consumes energy - an anachronism fairly soon.

And Virgil led Dante from Limbo into the second circle, and as he did so there was laid wide a great plane populated of the middle classes, chasing supermarket plastic bags that they could never catch wafted on some unseen breeze.

"Behold those who recycled but never carbon-balanced their air travel."

I figure we're about 700 years too late.

That's exactly why I'm embracing hedonism. If we're going to hell, we may as well get a tan.
