  Dear Friends of Solar Heating !Years of study diffrent solar heatingsystems, has lead me to the conclusion that the most ecologic way of using the sun for house and waterheating,is the passive annual heatstorage.also the research at the rocky mountain research center and at earthshelter.com shows clearly the incredible benefits of free heating all year round plus the carbons saved...the thermal mass(insulated) of surrounding earth is naturally heating up in the summer and radiating back to the house in the winter.one draw back is the massive use of concrete in the proposed builing at earthshelter.com,which i oppose and i am looking for renewable ecological materials,timberframe and claybrick walls i.e. which are availlable locally and are healthy to live with/in.there is a lot of developement of so called ecological solutions,but the materials used are often toxic,gassing,bad plastics like pvc plus the extra use of electricity from the grid,is not really costeffective,not counting all the electronic gadgets....etc.is also not for everybodys pocket..if northern europe and the northern part of the american continent would widely use the passive annual heatstorage,there would be a tremendous amount of fossil energy saved..
