Understanding effective aquaponics design
By Glenn Meyers
Recently, we posted a news article on the development of an effective aquaponics sytem at Mountain Sky Group that is inexpensive and sustainable in nature. Wayne Dorband, Ph.D., and George Hetfield have much to be excited about; I encourage you to read the news post. The systems they now have operating and are experimenting with were constructed out of plastic materials that were probably headed for the landfill. Not only did they smartly reuse materials to keep the cost of their project low, the food and fosh they are propducing happen to be excellent.
I hope this technology is something that can be exported to poor families worldwide in need of viable alternatives to help with living.

Interesting post, I just like the way you write out this post.
Just bookmarked your blog and will visit at least once a week.
Please do feel free to email me if you have some exclusive information on this topic. Regards,
Fantastic, thanks so much for this wonderful piece of writing! In my position personally, solar powered energy is certainly the way to go! There are lots of various kinds of alternatives out there that most people today do not even realize they can be working with and it is so valuable when we take the effort to help educate people today more on the other possibilities!!
