I recently reviewed two killer off grid home books at RiverWired. Both are so good, I’m going to recommend them as perfect holiday gifts for an eco-friendly pal (or maybe as a gift to yourself).

Earlier today I posted a review of a new book; The Carbon-Free Home: 36 Remodeling Projects to Help Kick the Fossil -Fuel Habit.

Offbeat Worthy Holiday Gifts (there’s an amazing book and a cool DVD listed in this post, among other items).
My Favorite Building DVD – the contest is over (ignore that) but the review is worth reading.
