Saving home energy using open organization principles #146

Closed RonMcFarland closed 1 year ago

RonMcFarland commented 2 years ago

Much has been written about carbon free energy generation, but it might be more productive to look at how energy is used, and possibly wasted. I have written a 2-part article series on how particularly electrical energy could be used more efficiently based on the book "Reinventing Fire: Bold Business Solutions for the New Energy Era". It is based on research by the Rocky Mountain Institute. This article stresses the very important role Open Organization Principles play.

This sounds interesting, @RonMcFarland. Looking forward to reading it!

Bryan, I will share a draft of this article with you. I have already shared it with AmyJune just for her reference, as she was interested in the subject personally. I think it is best to get it into editing after my articles on industry disruption are into production.

Seth made some comments in the doc, please take a look and let me know when its ready to hit the copy edit board. Thanks.

RonMcFarland commented 2 years ago

AmyJune, I can't seem to find Seth's comments. Are they in the Google Doc?

AmyJuneH commented 2 years ago

My apologies. Seth made edits versus comments in the doc. You can view them in the edit history.

RonMcFarland commented 2 years ago

AmyJune,

Oh. I see the edit history now. I'll look through the two parts and get back to you shortly.

Thanks,

Ron

Great, I will move the doc into the general review board.

AmyJuneH commented 2 years ago

FYI - the OSDC team split this into 2 tasks, one for each article.

RonMcFarland commented 2 years ago

Great AmyJune,

Thanks,

Ron

Here are some very small changes.....

  1. In this sentence, "First, the building energy consultant makes an appointment with their most trusted electricity user and explains that they want the user to save money."  ..."their" should be changed to "his" and "they" to "he wants".2.  In this sentence, "The consultant also shows the electricity user the data below from Reinventing Fire, which confirms that it's worth the investment in energy-saving measures. "....."below" should be "above".3.  In this sentence, "Users can also consider where the light is shining Is it exactly where and when it is needed?"... a period is required between "shining" and "Is".  Those three above are all the small things I found that should be changed.
