CREATE • COMMUNICATE • CELEBRATE
Solutions highlights the positive ideas and activities regarding climate challenges
and environmental issues that we are learning about as we travel and ask questions.
Following the screening of 7 Episodes on a trek through India documenting Solutions,
we will have 6 local folks involved in pioneering Solutions give 5 minute multi-media “talks”.
Bringing the Community Together One Film at a Time & As Always, FREE!
At the Ossining Library’s Magnificent Budarz Theatre . Screening Starts at 6:30; Seating Begins 6:15
Following the Film, Join Us for Conversation and Hands-on Explorations with Local Leaders:
In May of 2014, Puffer family hosted Mercy College’s Envisaj (Environmental Sustainability and Justice Club) and their professor TH Culhane at their home to build the first in-basement home biodigester in the U.S. A quote from Culhane in USA Today sums up his philosophy: “We feel that biogas is appropriate for everybody on the planet…. My wife and I cook every day on yesterday’s kitchen garbage.”
The Puffers farm microbes in their parallel IBC Solar C.³I.T.I.E.S. style biodigester to harness energy from their organic waste to create biogas for cooking and making nitrogen rich plant food for growing food hydroponically and enriching soil. Home biogas is used commonly in rural India and Kenya, the Puffers hope to inspire and educate on the possibilities of home biogas in the U.S.
