    Some pictures of my garden, the only plant that stuck with me from the beginning is the green bell peppers the rest didn't fare out so well,  some are just planted about a week ago. I tried to grow: tomatoes, bell peppers, baby beets, chives, zucchini, and egg plant.

    My family's company and I are implementing sustainable use of light and electricity at a large university hosptial campus by relamping entire buildings on the campus with sustainable LED lights in all the hallways, bathrooms, exam rooms and offices. 
    Lights are left on in the buildings 24/7 for security purposes. Switching from flourescent to LED lamps lowers the consumption and provides a sustinable alternative for the hospital campus.
