Window Restoration Featured on The Environment Report

The public radio news service, The Environment Report featured a story on window restoration as it relates to one couple's efforts to create the nation's oldest net-zero energy home (one that produces more energy than it consumes).

Instead of replacing their 110 year old windows, they opted to restore them and create a learning experience at the same time. They invited a local window restoration expert to use their house and it's windows as a classroom where people could come and learn the craft.

Windows restored - valuable skills taught - embodied energy preserved!

It's a great story and you can listen to it here:
