Goals, preferences part of buying green home
By CAROLYN DUBROFSKY
Broker-in-Charge, Charleston Your Home
Special to CharlestonCurrents.com
JUNE
7, 2010 Green building usually means something different
to everyone. For some, making their home or office more sustainable
could be as simple as putting a seal around windows and doors. For
others, creating a green space means installing solar panels and
dual-flush toilets. And when it comes to buying a new home, personal
tastes and budgets play a key role.

At
its core, the practice of green building whether its
a home or a shopping center is about creating a symbiotic
relationship with the environment. The overall goal is complementing
and marrying the building design concerns of comfort, durability,
utility and economy.
As
green building both in the commercial and residential markets
becomes more prevalent, its important for homebuyers
to think about what a sustainable home means to them and the features
they want when shopping for a new house. Much of that will depend
on their budget as well as their knowledge of sustainability and
how important certain features are.
Building
a truly sustainable home means factoring in the environment, the
design, the materials, the construction and the lot that
means everything from the roof and insulation to the doors and windows.
Potential
considerations for a green home:
- Conserving
electricity, water and heat through the overall design of the
home, which could include placement of the home on a shady piece
of the property or adding more windows to maximize natural light.
- Use
of sustainable appliances and big-ticket items that conserve energy
and cut down on power bills, such as a tank-less hot water heater,
energy-efficient heating and air conditioning units, energy-efficient
appliances.
- Green
products are available for essentially every room in the house
and for the overall décor, such as a flooring, countertops,
cabinets, furniture, lighting, toilets and showerheads.
You
may even decide to purchase a home and renovate or retrofit it to
be sustainable. Or certainly building from the ground up gives homeowners
the chance to be as green as they want to be.
The
bottom line on buying a green home depends on your pocketbook, your
overall commitment to being green as well as your knowledge of what
it means to be sustainable. Dont just buy a home thats
labeled green. Do your research and come prepared knowing
what matters to you and which home features need to be green at
the core and not just in the paint job.

Scent of
kerosene leaves mark
By ANDY BRACK, publisher
ALONG
THE GULF COAST, June 7, 2010 The hint of kerosene in the
air on Mobile Bay served as an immediate reminder of the massive
oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Brack
|
It
wasn't an overpowering scent, but a faint fragrance similar to what
you might smell a few minutes after spraying WD-40 on something.
For
all of the people I met and talked with during a weekend long exploratory
tour of what's happening along the Gulf coast from Dauphin Island,
Ala., to Apalachicola, Fla., this change from the normal salty sea
breeze to slightly oil-tinged winds is something that won't be easy
to shake.
To
be clear, I didn't see a bunch of goo on any of the white sandy
beaches that are as typical of the Gulf coast as sugar is in sweet
tea. But here are some observations:
- People
are very worried about what the oil is going to do to the tourism
and fisheries businesses along the coast. And they're more worried
about the impact of the spill for wildlife.
- But
they're apparently not worried enough yet not to swim in the water.
It was surprising how people would bathe in the clear, green waters
as crews periodically combed beaches for pea-sized tarballs.
- Contract
crews were spotted in Dauphin Island, Ala., and just south of
Pensacola Beach, Fla. They wore makeshift haz-mat suits
yellow plastic boots that were duct-taped to their pants. The
stuff they picked up seemed small no larger than a silver
dollar, one observer said. It wasn't hard to wonder whether these
crews were on beaches more for public relations purposes than
for significant clean-up work.
- The
red and yellow strings of boom around parts of the shoreline seemed
pretty flimsy, making us wonder just how much oil they can keep
out.
During
the trip, I talked with Peck Thompson, a 77-year-old retired sheet
rock worker who was fishing for croaker in Mobile Bay. He said he
wasn't too sure how much longer he'd be able to fish like he'd been
doing for the last 60 years.

Thompson
|
It's
a disaster right now, he said Saturday. It's going to
shut a lot of businesses down bait shops and stuff and the
people who make their business fishing. He said business at
the bait shop over which he lived was about half of what it should
be.
A
few minutes later, I ran into Drew Wheelan of the American Birding
Association. He had been sent from Washington state to find out
the impact of the spill on wildlife. He had, he mournfully said,
a bunch of pictures of oiled birds.
Later
that day, Capt. Billy Lyons, president of Volco.LLC marine contractors
from Spanish Fort, Ala., described how he came up with an idea to
protect Weeks Bay and its national estuarine research reserve. Because
Weeks Bay, a relatively small inlet off Mobile Bay, is only about
600 yards across before it opens into a large area, Lyons said he
was implementing a plan to block the entrance of the bay by positioning
three long barges across the neck of the inlet buffeted by sectional
floating barges. The barges would knock down choppy waves from Mobile
Bay and allow the boom, positioned behind the barges, to do their
work. Otherwise, he said, the waves would jump over boom, carrying
oil with it.
Early
Sunday, Tampa, Fla., TV reporter Don Germaise told viewers during
a live broadcast from Pensacola Beach, that the spill was only
going to get worse. The day before, he said he had seen a
bunch of tarballs on beaches east of town. When Germaise finished
his shot, a salesman for 'oil-eating microbes tried to get
the news team to do a story about their product for which a display
was set up nearby.

Femrite
|
Moments
later at a beach in Gulf Islands National Seashore, 36-year-old
Larry Femrite of Pensacola was walking off the beach with a camera.
He explained he had just left an overnight shift at a nearby WalMart
and was on his way home. In recent days, he had started to stop
to check to see what he could see of the spill on the beaches. On
Saturday, he said he saw oily specks washing ashore. On Sunday,
he didn't see much of anything, other than a goo-covered empty Gatorade
bottle that washed ashore.
It
should be a wake-up call to the oil companies and government,
Femrite said. They should have better procedures in place
in case something happens. I don't know if the ecosystem will ever
recover.
A
couple of miles away, National Park Service Ranger Mark Whipps dug
into the sand near the tide line to see if any oil detritus had
been buried in the white sand. I'm extremely ecstatic that
it's not deep, said Whipps, who had been sent from his regular
park (Natchez Trace near Tupelo, Miss.,) to Gulf Islands for a 14-day
tour of patrolling the beach.
As
about 20 contract workers prepared to look for oil pollution on
the beach, he noted, One of the good things since I've been
here is the crews have gotten here right away. It's kind of an ongoing
process.

ENCYCLOPEDIA
Poultry
The
humble chicken has risen from the obscurity of the barnyard to the
summit of South Carolina agriculture. In the late twentieth century
the poultry industry (broilers, turkeys, and eggs) became the states
leading agribusiness, contributing $500 million annually to the
states economy.
But
before chickens and turkeys were cash crops, they were part of the
culture. Native Americans raised turkeys long before Europeans and
Africans came to South Carolina, and chickens arrived with the first
settlers. Soon chickens were the most common domestic animal in
South Carolina, and virtually every farm family raised poultry for
its own table and sold surplus eggs and fowl to townsfolk. This
pattern of husbandry persisted nearly three centuries. Predictably,
poultry earned an honored place in the regions cuisine: fried
chicken, chicken and dumplings, chicken bog, and pilau became celebrated
staples of the Carolina diet.
Poultry
evolved from a subsistence activity to a business in the 1930s.
Farmers fleeing boll-weevil-infested cotton fields experimented
with poultry as a cash crop. Production of broilers (chickens ten
to twelve weeks of age at processing) rose from a mere 300,000 head
in 1934 to 14 million by 1952 and to 48 million by the 1980s. The
South Carolina poultry industry followed the pattern developed in
Georgia by J. D. Jewell in the 1940s. Farmers entered partnerships
with poultry processors, providing land, buildings, and equipment;
processors furnished baby chicks, feed, vaccines, and veterinary
services. Farmers fed and cared for the chicks until market weight
was achieved. Processors collected the fowl and paid farmers based
on weight gain. Processors then slaughtered, dressed, packaged,
and delivered birds to market. Farmers typically raised four broods
each per year.
The
poultry industry experienced phenomenal growth in the 1980s and
1990s.
Observers credit automation and mass production for
keeping consumer prices low, making poultry a bargain. Cultural
influences were also factors. Health-conscience consumers made chicken
and turkey centerpieces of the trendy low-fat cuisine that swept
the country in the 1990s. In 2001 broilers, turkeys, and eggs ranked
first, fifth, and seventh, respectively, of South Carolinas
top-ten commodities.
