Eco-partnership with Sister City Mianzhu, China

December 2008

Built in 1915 the S.D. Robinett Building was the only surviving building on Main Street. The Goodmans purchased the Robinett building after losing their antique store of eight years in the tornado. Presently their business is temporarily located 27 miles away in Kensley, Ks. They are renovating as energy efficient as possible with two floors to heat and cool, up stairs for their apartment, down stairs the store. All the while preserving the last remaining land-mark of Main Street. Old pictures of the building and Main Street are found. (more…)

On May 4, 2007 Greensburg, Kansas was ravaged by a tornado, and most of its 1,400
residents were left homeless. Ninety-five percent of the town was destroyed. But
with the hearts of champions and bold spirits, they looked past their pain and
suffering and saw hope in the devastation. With literally a clean slate to work with,
they are committed to rebuilding their town into the ultimate energy-efficient
community. (more…)

Last month I told you about a new channel coming to cable June 1st called Planet
Green.

tell you about that tomorrow. In the meantime, listen to this.

A town called Greensburg, Kansas was literally wiped off the map by a tornado last
