Green Museum

Short article and video on the latest and greatest green museum in San Francisco developed by the California Academy of Sciences. Designed and built to be green all the way from the basement to the roof. Inside are wildlife and aquarium areas. Interesting to note how they utilized "aerofoils" (a.k.a hills) as a way to direct wind into the building for A/C. Makes us realize that God has even made mounds of dirt have a special purpose. Also has hi-tech interactive learning tools integrated into the "green-ness" of the building. Shows that it is possible to seamlessly integrate hi-technology with considerations toward the environment.
