As a quick introduction I would describe myself as an inventor, and from early age I found I could envision a very different world than the one I see around me. My vision is that our dwellings will be living systems; a sun space where we would be constantly refreshed and sustained by creation itself. I was drawn into the idea that a transparent structure could become a dwelling that would provide natural, ecological life support and so I worked to create a controlled environment that would be a "garden home" and which would utilize solar energy efficiently. I have created SolaRoof technology as a global Creative Commons collaboration to construct an EcoDynamic built environment that would be literally a "living structure", which is capable of supplying energy, food, water and a refreshing atmosphere in which to live, work and play.

Friends of SolaRoof, I am now announcing an inspired program - it will work for you to build a great enterprise - grow with the PODnet team! PODnet is a global collaborative/cooperative community and I seek special people and teams to co-create the POD solution. Join the first wave of POD Pioneers in 2014. We have the know how but also know that you will bring your best into this Creative Commons community and together WE will build the best vertical farm "greener than a greenhouse" and share what we are doing with the world. Super productive and profitable this is what a grower needs for a strong triple bottom line - be the change: be a POD Pioneer!

Let me know if you are in the first wave of POD Pioneers,
Richard
