 If you weren't able to be there a couple weeks ago for the Go Big Little Rhody rally at the Zoo, you now can watch it on YouTube. Local politicians and advocates gathered to call for statewide reductions in greenhouse gasses. This excellent video was produced by Robert Malin of South County Productions.

Last weekend, I visited a very cool, off-the-grid, environmentally friendly home in Hope Valley. This was one of the stops on the annual Green Buildings Open House tour organized by the Northeast Sustainable Energy Association.
Ray Cayer's round house, built of concrete, is durable, well-insulated, easy to build and maintain, affordable, and crafted mainly from local materials. Check out our exclusive NNN Slideshow for a narrated, five-minute tour.

Commercial fishermen are out on the Bay every day bringing home the catch, and they depend on a clean environment and healthy fish populations to keep the rest of us in fish & chips. NNN's executive producer DJ Johnson spent a day on the water aboard URI's Cap'n Bert to find out what the fishing life is like. You can try it too -- a few more trips, open to the public, are scheduled for Sept. 22 & 25 and Oct. 2. Click here for more info.
