Pedal Power Book

Here is a link to a free pedal power book, including making your own bicycle powered generators: http://www.scribd.com/doc/23249084/Pedal-Power

Thanks for this

What an amazing book. I now have it as a PDF file on my computer, and will hopefully print it out.

 

Cheers

Only the first Link works

Only the link to the first pdf works. All the other links fail, by returning me to the Green Wizards Introduction page - this seems to be the behaviour whenever a link is non-existent. Can somebody correct the links please or put the files where they are expected. Thanks.

gaiatechnician youtube channel for new alternative sustainable stuff.

This is not really a plug for my youtube channel.  Several of my projects have won prizes and one of them is on wikipedia.  Plese check out https://www.youtube.com/user/gaiatechnician for a new pallet garden concept, the lean away greenhouse, dripper (not drip) irrigation, the pulser pump and various videos about windowfarms, solitary bee habitat and solar cooking.  It is aranged in playlists and I think the playlists are by far the best way to access the informatio that you want.

Almost all my stuff is new. You will not find it in any book but it is all real. Some of it is there in more detail under the same username on instructables.com

Thanks

Great Fruit Tree Book: Pacific Northwest

If anyone is looking for a great book on how to grow fruit trees in the pacific northwest--from the Bay Area to Vancouver--I just found the best little book: FROM TREE TO TABLE, by Barbara Edwards & Mary Olivea.  Not only does it give you excellent advice on which trees do best in the climates and soils of your area, it helps you figure out how to trouble shoot any problems you're having as they grow.  It discusses everything from pruning & pests to how to preserve or cook your sweet bounty.http://www.mountaineersbooks.org/productdetails.cfm?PC=1898
