So, to follow up with the previous posting about free classes—there are also some not so free ones out there. The ones that I will reference here are offered by:
The California Building Performance Contractors Association—and they do a bunch of classes on Building Science, residential retrofit practices, diagnostics, evaluation, and performance. Theses classes, combined with a trillion or so dollars of retrofit/renovation monies from somewhere, could transform our broader energy systems and obviate half of our existing power plants, and all the pollution they provide. There are lots of people who don’t want that to happen, for obvious reasons (they’ve invested a lot of good money into those things).
Their formatting in the HTML seems to actively discourage reposting, so, here’s the link to the right page:
