Some graduates decorate their caps to spell out their sororities’ names. Other people, like Roland Saekow, create a green residential lot on theirs.
Complete with grass paper (astroturf probably causes global warming or something), a solar panel, a wind turbine, a small house and a mechanical rising sun, Roland’s hat made statement. You, too, can have a green cap. What for? Don’t be silly.
Though normally we’d be jerks and point out that you don’t actually have to power your cap in the first place—let alone construct a sustainable way to do so—we won’t do that today. Instead, hats off to Roland, who showed us how graduation gear no longer has to depend on pollutants like petroleum any more. Oil kills!

I must i had been a little leary of all hype happening around solar. After investigating various programs and purchase options my spouce and i chose to take the plunge. We finished up getting solar without having money down and we all immediatly started spending less the first month is was installed. I must say the primary advantages of solar are real and I am happy that we made a decision to proceed with it.
