A Guide to Sustainable Living Designs
and Energy Independence
This book is your Guide to Sustainable Living Designs and Energy Independence.
The information in this book will show you what we have learned; so, that you can either
transform your existing Homes, Buildings, Schools, Businesses, Resorts, Orphanages
and Vehicles, or build new ones where you can survive in a Renewable World!
CANYON VIEW OF WORLDS NEST
WORLDS NEST WITH VIEW OF TAOS SKI MOUNTAIN

Globally, we are only using
0.07% Renewable Energy.
The goal is to Bring this
Number Towards 100%.
The end of oil is near and nuclear power is too costly both
economically and ecologically. It is time for humankind to
make a quantum leap. Global Warming is real and the only
way humanity can survive is if it takes on the Sustainability
Challenge. What is Sustainability?
CNN Reported, on February 20, 2006, MILWAUKEE, Wis-
consin (AP) -- Saying the nation is on the verge of technologi-
cal breakthroughs that would “startle” most Americans, Presi-
dent Bush on Monday outlined his energy proposals to help
wean the country off foreign oil. Less than half the crude oil
used by refineries is produced in the United States, with 65%
coming from foreign nations.
The President is calling us “Oil Addicts.” Subsequently, Bush
visited the Energy Department’s National Renewable Energy
Laboratory in Golden, Colorado, to talk about speeding the
development of bio-fuels.
However, just south of Colorado in Taos, New Mexico, the
American Dream has already happened; and is providing proof
to inspire the World that this can be done now,
(not as some distant future goal).
The dream is alive now at
Angels Nest.
Robert Plarr and Victoria Peters are well ahead
of the world. They took on the challenge to
prove to the world that humans can live in
luxury, with ecologically sustainable energy
technologies for both the home and their
vehicles.
If they can build a functional, luxurious,
sustainable home, then technically, anyone
can do it. This is the goal: to get the home and
the automobiles off of the grid; off of polluting
energy Sources; and to become “Eco-Energy
Independent.”
The goal has been attained.

Angels Nest has become a Hub
for Sustainable Living
Technology Research
It is visited every day by students, engineers, politicians, legis-
lators, media, world educators and leaders. It is quickly
becoming “The Model Building of the Future.” There
is no other way humanity can survive the continuing
Earth Changes and the economic challenges of
the end of oil, other than to become
“Sustainable.”
By the time you finish reading
this book, you will not only
know what Sustainability means
to yourself, you will know what
it means to the Global Community.
Sustainability does not mean you have to use small solar
panels and live in a cave with one light bulb.
Angels Nest proves that you can have every modern conve-
nience, such as: plasma screen TV, washers and dryers;
computers; stereos, and kitchen appliances while not pollut-
ing the planet. It will also show you how you can become your
own utility, so that in the event of force majeure (hurricanes,
tornadoes, earthquakes, or fires), you can still rebuild your
life, without relying on the massively vulnerable utility grid
systems.
This is your personal journey into how living sustainably will
transform how you feel about your relationship to the earth,
yourself, your Mind, Body and Soul. There is not a single
person on the planet who is not affected by “Earth Changes”
caused by human energy consumption and pollution. When we
decide to go on a journey that has already been taken by great
pioneers of science, we are really not taking that much of a
risk. We are just making a transition for our own health, and
that of our future children.
We will still enjoy modern technology, but with the added
feature of sustainability. You can live in a solar-powered home,
wind powered home, hydrogen powered home. You can drive
a hydrogen, bio-fuel vehicle. You can actually do this today.
This is not future technology, but today’s solution. Angels
Nest was created to show average Americans how to be sus-
tainable. Welcome to the model home of the world where,
you capture your own water from rain and snow on your roof,
produce your own power, provide your own health care, and
pay no utility bills.

Homeland Security
Angels Nest
As individuals, we are vulnerable to pollution, power failures and
terrorist attacks. Our homes are our only security. Los Ange-
les, Department of Water and Power, the nation’s largest municipal
utility, supplies water and power to more than 3.8 million residents
and thousands of businesses.
“We need a fundamental change to protect Los Angeles’ residents
from terrorist attacks and adapt LADWP to a high performance
level,” Mayor Hahn said. “It was clear to me from the moment of
the World Trade Center attack that we in Los Angeles would have
to ‘harden the target’ by increasing security, especially at our water
and power facilities.”
The truth is, by the time Security Agencies find a serious
contaminant in our water, it would be too late for thousands to
millions of people. We are most vulnerable to a biological
attack through our water supply.
If terrorists were capable of deploying an Ebola virus, mutated
smallpox, or even nerve toxins, millions of people could die.
Thedifferencebetweenabiologicalagentandachemicalagentisthis:
biological viruses are contagious. You only need to infect thousands
to kill millions of people due to the contagious ability of such a
virus. Smallpox and Ebola are potential weapons that can kill
tens of millions of people, far greater numbers than even nuclear
weapons. Biological weapons have higher kill ratios than nucle-
ar weapons. The target is the water supply of any major city or
township.
Your Water Supply is
your only Security
By having your home
provide its own drinking
and bathing water, you
are not vulnerable to rely-
ing on water that comes
through miles of pipes.
Pipe systems are vulner-
able to terrorist attacks.
City water supplies are
places where terrorists can
disperse biological or
chemical weapons. Your
only security from bio-
logical terrorism is to
maintain your own water
supply via rainwater cap-
ture and filtration.
This is why Angels Nest
uses rainwater capture,
vortex water treatment and
humidity capture systems
for the home water supply.
This guide will show you
how to do this.

Your solar and wind power can be stored as hydrogen.

Electricity can then be generated through hydrogen fuel
cells providing security against a terrorist attack, or natural
disaster. In the event of war, enemies target power stations
and communications centers first. If you have your own
power, you are secure. Terrorist know how vulnerable we are
when we have millions of homes and businesses linked to
a few nuclear or coal powered plants. When we build our
own home, or small community power generation facilities,
we decentralize the energy supply, making it impossible for
terrorists to take down the whole country. If America ever
becomes involved in a World War, then we would be targeted
from inside our boarders. Terrorists only need to take down
our power plants.
Your Power Supply is your only Security
Wind Generator at Angels Nest
The new model of Homeland Security is Home Security.
Become your own utility and water provider. Also, in
a natural disaster, what is the most common head-
line? “Thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of
residents are without power.” Residents have to wait weeks to
months to get power restored in their areas. We need power
to pump water, run sewage, and keep hospital communication
facilities operating.
Become Energy Independent. Set the new model. Be your
own homeland security station, just as Angels Nest has
demonstrated.

After 9/11 in NYC, the Founders and Visionaries
Robert Plarr and Victoria Peters knew we needed to
have sustainable security buildings. So, they co-created,
what may be the best example in the world of an energy
independent home, including a vehicle refueling station.
Angels Nest produces all of its own energy with Solar
and Wind technology. The building is constructed from
recycled materials (tires, beer cans, bottles, and wood)
and captures all of its own water from snow melt and rain
(reuses that water 6 times). In addition, Angels Nest
features an indoor tropical greenhouse for growing food.
The facility has its own hydrogen fueling station for re-
fueling vehicles that run on hydrogen fuel cells, or pure
hydrogen. It even makes its own hydrogen from excess
solar and wind power. This means that once your home’s
power cells are full, then excess energy goes to make
hydrogen. By producing home grown fuel, you can drive
your own vehicle (hydrogen fuel cell car, hydrogen power-
drive car or truck). At Angels Nest, the hummer runs on
hydrogen and biofuels (and several other fuels).
Complacency can no longer be an option!

While President Bush said “Our nation is on the threshold of new
energy technology that I think will startle the American people,”
Angels Nest Founders Robert Plarr and Victoria Peters invite
him to see it already in action.

Chemical Pollution Problems
Coal is also responsible for Acid Rain (sulfur dioxides),another very
serious ecological threat. Acid rain may cause mutations in plant
life, microbiological systems, and amphibians such as frogs. Over
the past two decades, mutated frogs are showing up everywhere.
Frogs have been hatched with 5 eyeballs, numerous legs and other
deformations. One attributed cause for the amphibian mutations is
chemical pollution, acid rain, and possible ozone depletion (UV ex-
posure).Amphibian mutations - extra limbs, malformed or missing
limbs, and facial malformations have been documented in 44 states,
involving nearly 60 species. In some local populations, up to 60% of
the amphibians exhibit malformations.
If we were finding mutated human beings everywhere, perhaps we
would be more serious about solving the problem. While the ef-
fects to humans seem more difficult to connect to acid rain and
other chemical pollution, the signs appearing in frog ponds may be
a warning sign that says, “we are next.” What will we do when hu-
man birth defects are equal to the frogs? Will we wake up then?
New Mexico gets 87% of its electricity from burning coal. Many
other states are high on the list. Nationally, the United States gets
52% of all of its electricity from coal. Coal is the main cause of
Acid rain, which mutates and kills fish and amphibians. It also
emits mercury into our rivers and streams, making fish a toxic food
source. Mercury can cause severe illnesses in humans and wildlife.
The number one cause of environmental degradation is the way we
produce and consume energy. While the technology in computers,
commercial electronics, telecommunications, motor vehicles, air trans-
portation, and ocean transportation is advancing exponentially, the
sources of energy needed to run current technology are not evolving
towards ecological sustainability fast enough.
While the idea of using renewable energy is popular, out of the total
world energy consumption for 1998, the actual usage of environmen-
tally acceptable renewable energy was less than 1% (0.7%). Renewable
energy includes all, but not exclusively: biomass, solar electric power,
passive solar heating, solar hot water heating, and wind electric power.
Oil and Coal
Of the ways that we produce electric power, oil and coal are at the top of
the list. They are also the greatest contributors to “Global Greenhouse
Gas Emissions” responsible for “global warming.” Oil and other fossil
fuels also provide most of our energy for transportation. Our trans-
portation vehicles are responsible for a great portion of ‘Greenhouse
Gas” emissions.
Oil Spills have plagued the environment for decades. In the 1990’s,
more than 1,140,000 tons of oil polluted our oceans from oil spill
accidents. That is a very high price to pay for oil transportation. The
1970’s yielded over 3.1 million tons of oil spills.
On March 24, 1989, shortly after midnight, the oil tanker Exxon Valdez
struck Bligh Reef in Prince William Sound, Alaska, spilling more than 11
million gallons of crude oil. The spill was the largest in U.S. history.
Where does our Energy Come From?

16
Nuclear Energy
While nuclear energy (6.5% of Global Energy Usage) does not contrib-
ute greenhouse gases, it does produce some thermal heat pollution that
gets trapped in the greenhouse gas environment. Nuclear energy also
pollutes our environment with radioactive waste, uranium mining
pollution (a threat to water supplies) and radiation.
Uranium Mining Pollution
In the southwestern states of Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico, there
are thousands of uranium mining claims. Some of the open-pit mines
have leaked radioactive waste into water supplies and rivers, contaminat-
ing Indian reservations, thus causing serious birth defects and cancers.
The effects of uranium mining pollution are serious and generally over-
looked in the overall threat scenario of nuclear incidents.
Nuclear Waste
However, there are other threats, such as nuclear waste storage. America’s
most imminent site for nuclear waste is at Yucca Mountain.
Nevada coalitions tried to block approval by Congress to use the
nuclear waste site at Yucca Mountain, about 100 miles northwest of Las
Vegas. But Congress (By a vote of 60 to 39 in 2004) has approved the site
(at a cost of $58 billion) to store 70,000 metric tons of nuclear waste from
nuclear power plants in 39 States. “By shipping nuclear waste on trucks
and trains and barges, we may very well be creating hundreds, even thou-
sands, of rolling dirty bombs. What sense does that make?”
We’re talking about transporting roughly 70,000 metric tons of deadly
waste from nuclear facilities in 39 states across our nation’s highways,
railways and waterways to Yucca Mountain,” said Senate Majority Leader
Tom Daschle, Democrat of South Dakota.
At a cost of $58 billion, just for nuclear waste storage, (let alone
the costs of health effects and damage to water supplies, and other
aspects of the ecology), why aren’t we willing to spend equal amounts
of money making giant wind and solar power plants? Even funding
for non-radioactive fusion is being cut.
Nuclear Waste Threatens
Water Supply
Yucca Mountain sits on top of a giant aquifer (underground water
supply). According to the Department of Energy (DOE), the site is
located in Nye County, Nevada, about 100 miles northwest of Las
Vegas. It is federally owned land on the western edge of the Depart-
ment of Energy’s Nevada Test Site. The nuclear waste repository would
be approximately 1,000 feet below the top of the mountain and 1,000
feet above the ground water.
Tritium is a radioactive isotope of the element hydrogen. It has a half-
life of 12.3 years. This means half of it decays every 12.3 years, making
half of it no longer radioactive. Consequently, the radioactivity decays
over time. However, in that time, a lot of damage to water systems can
occur.
With radioactive “Tritium” as part of the nuclear waste being sent to
Yucca Mountain, migration into the water supply 1,000 feet below,
is sure to happen over time. Being a form of hydrogen, tritium
quickly forms radioactive water when it reaches water supplies. Once
the water is contaminated, plants, humans, mammals, animals, even
birds, snakes and reptiles will be at risk.

Are we really willing to take all of these risks just because we don’t
want to spend money developing renewable energy on a large scale? Is
our future disposable for our children? The answer is most certainly,
“no.” We have to change.

17
Nuclear Fusion
Fusion is a viable form of energy production only if the nuclear fuels
are non-radioactive. Most forms of fusion are still radioactive; including
the government funded Tokomak Fusion Reactor at Princeton, which
uses Tritium and (Deuterium) Hydrogen D+T. Even Cold Fusion of
Deuterium+Deuterium is partially radioactive.
Deuterium+Helium-3 Fusion is the most environmentally safe form of
nuclear energy. 9 grams of Helium-3 fuel holds the energy equivalent
of 1,000 barrels of crude oil. There is virtually no radioactivity, or less than
1% depending on the cycles used. Moon dust is loaded with Helium-3.
Hydro Electric Power
Hydroelectric power (7% of global energy) is not a contributor to Green-
house gases, but it does pose some environmental challenges such as dams
in wilderness areas that rely on waterways. It is the least threatening to our
global atmosphere, making it a viable energy source for sustainability.
Natural Gas
Natural gas (22.5% of Global Energy) causes very little comparative
damage to the atmosphere. It does cause toxic pollution to soils and wa-
ter as it is extracted from the earth. However, if Natural gas (methane) is
released into the atmosphere; making it is a serious greenhouse gas (7 times
that of carbon dioxide).
17

According to a recent study conducted by the Rocky Mountain Institute
(Snowmass, Colorado), the average American home (2,280 square feet)
uses approximately $1,441 of energy annually. The energy is responsible
for 26,028 pounds of Carbon Dioxide emissions that are released into our
atmosphere.
Try and visualize what each and every family is responsible for. Each and
every one of our homes is contributing to global warming unless we trans-
form to sustainable energy systems. There is no one else to blame. We have
met the enemy, and the enemy is us! However, it is not too late. We can
choose the sustainable solution.
Home Heating
At the top of the list is home heating, producing 8,829 lbs per year of carbon
dioxide greenhouse gases per family dwelling. Air conditioning produces
1,882 pounds of carbon dioxide. Water heating produces 3,558 pounds
of carbon dioxide. Refrigerators and freezers produce 2,606 lbs of carbon
dioxide. Cooking produces 825 pounds.
Other appliances such as TVs, radios, computers, blenders, and hair
dryers produce another 6,182 pounds of CO2 per year. The total is 26,028
pounds of CO2 produced by the average American household per year.
This is an astounding figure when you consider how much that weighs on
our atmosphere.
Air conditioning
This makes up 7.2% of the home’s CO2 emissions. It is actually
possible to reduce the need for cooling with certain designs that you
will learn about in this book. Further, solar-wind energy can be used
to run air-conditioning systems.
At Angels nest, we have demonstrated sustainable heating methods
with renewable energy heating systems, such as solar-hot-water floors
(heated tiles), passive solar windows, wind-solar hydrogen bio-fuels
which can be used for cooking and heating.
At Angels Nest, we have also demonstrated how to heat and cool your
home with no CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) and no CO2 from the
energy sources.
Lighting - Light Bulbs
Lighting is 8.2%, and this can be solved by only using solar-wind, and
hydrogen fuel cell technology. All of the lights are on at Angels Nest
and there is no power plant providing the electricity. It is all produced
at Angels Nest.
Lighting produces 2,145 pounds of CO2 from energy derivatives.
Just by using energy saving light bulbs, we can reduce CO2 emissions
drastically. Angels Nest will show you other ways to reduce energy
spent on lighting that include skylights, fiber optics, and more.
Average Home Energy Use

19
Water heating
If we use a standard water heater to heat water, this produces
13.7% of the home’s greenhouse gases.
Water can be heated with new European solar tubes that bring
water to 200 degrees F. That water can be stored in a well-insulated
hot water tank , then circulated under the tile floors to keep a house
warmallnight. Bymorningthetilesarecoolagain,thesuncomesup
andthecyclecanbeginagain. Additionalwind-solar-hydrogencan
beproducedandused toheatwaterfurtherforbathingandcooking.
Refrigerator-freezer energy
This causes 10% of the home’s greenhouse gases. New, efficient
and high quality refrigerators will reduce this energy problem and
can be powered with solar-wind technology, as demonstrated at
Angels Nest.
Cooking
This is only 3.2% of the Greenhouse gas problem. If we use solar-
wind made hydrogen and extremely efficient cooking appliances,
we can eliminate this all together.
Remaining Appliances
These make up 23.8% of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from same energy
sources. These are TVs, computers, hair dryers, blenders, toasters, etc. If it
plugs in the wall, it is in this category. No matter what we are using, we are
plugged into one of our energy sources that are causing Global Warming
and other problems.
Efficient Appliances
This is a very important area to research for your new home, or your
home in transformation. There are a number of manufacturers of energy
efficient stoves, refrigerators, washers and dryers, light bulbs, and many
other appliances.
If you design your home’s major appliances around efficiency, you can
reduce the amount of money you will spend on solar, wind and hydrogen
fuel cells. The appliances may cost more up front, but on the back end,
they will save you more on your energy systems.
The goal is to have every appliance you want, including computers, a TV
and Stereo, without compromising your lifestyle. This can be done, but
energy has to be managed to keep your costs down.
Once you have your systems installed, you will have no energy bills.

Protecting Our Oceans
Many of our oceans are being destroyed by raw sewage dumping,
nuclear waste dumping, chemical dumping and trash disposal.
The Mediterranean and Indian Oceans are some of the most
polluted oceans in the world. The ways we produce energy
are mostly to blame. That is why a major transformation
is necessary.
Our oceans are the lungs of the earth. Most of the oxygen we
breathe comes from our oceans. Seaweed and other sea algae
produce 71% of the Earth’s oxygen. By keeping our oceans safe
from toxic waste dumping, raw sewage, nuclear waste disposal,
oil spills, and trash, seaweed can thrive.
Just think of how much you have enjoyed a beautiful sunset
on the ocean. Remember that just by choosing to make an
alternative choice to power your home and automobile, you
are choosing to protect our oceans. You are the ocean.
There is no difference.
Just imagine how much the ocean gives us: beauty, surf for
swimming and sports, fish, seaweed for sushi, salt, oxygen,
the color blue, and shimmering orange sunsets.
Now imagine that you no longer have that because it is all being
destroyed. 30% of the world’s coral reefs are already gone.
Penguins and many other marine mammals are going extinct.
Dolphins and whales are dying due to pollution.
21

22
Low Lying Coastal Cities all over the World are in Grave Danger of Rising Ocean Levels
as more and more of the Antarctic and Greenland Ice Sheets melt into the sea.
All of this can be Avoided if we make changes.

23
23
One third of the earth’s surface is landmass. 29%
of our oxygen comes from forests and swamps.
Forests and other wooded lands cover a lot of the
planet’s landmass. Between 1990 and 1995, 65.1
millionhectares(160millionacres)of forestswerelost
due to deforestation in developing countries alone.
While logging can not be avoided (we use wood in
furniture, for building homes and offices, and for
paper), it can be reduced and managed fairly well in
contrast to what we are doing today. It can be used less
in frame construction and morewhere it can be viewed
and enjoyed.
We can also use more renewable wood sources such as
Bamboo, Hemp and Paulownia Trees.
We can also reuse our paper grocery bags rather than
throwing them away each time we go shopping. Even
if we reduce our use of paper from shopping bags over
a lifetime, and just save one tree, think about it. There
are 6 billion people in the world. If each one of us saves
onesingletree,likethisgiantSequoia,thenwecansave
6 billion trees in one generation of human life. That is
if every person is willing to participate.
Trees are our Lifeforce

24
24
In one year, an average tree absorbs 26 pounds (11.79 kilograms) of CO2 and expels enough
Oxygen to keep a family of four breathing for a year.
By replanting trees and forests, we can do two things: 1) we can reduce Greenhouse gases (CO2). As trees
grow, they take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and use it to build their solid mass, as they are
carbon-based life forms; 2) Trees also produce oxygen. Oxygen is needed for the production of atmo-
spheric Ozone, and for all living things.
More and more tree planting efforts are needed to restore global forests from deforestation. That means
more people are needed to do the job. It is very hard work isolated from modern city life for low pay.
Tree planters make huge sacrifices, leaving family and friends for months and months at a time to
rebuild deforested landscapes. They also face the harshest weather conditions while they work,
such as extreme heat, cold, mosquitoes, snow, lightning and severe rain. None of these condi-
tions gives the tree planter the option to quit working. They work in sideways rain and hail
with high winds even facing hypothermia.
David Sereda bagged up with 200 seedling Spruce Trees weighing about 40 lbs.
He planted about 1,500 trees, 9 feet apart, in a single work day; he made enough
money to pay for his own tree planting bags, boots, and clothes, all of which he destroyed in a
few working months. The shovel, raingear, and hat are extra. He worked those off the next day.
He made enough money to eat, take a day off, and do his laundry.

Then you get to see the trees you planted after a few years and
you feel this amazing, spiritual connection with the earth.
It starts to mature over time. There is no feeling like having bent over
and touched the earth to plant a tree over a million times. It is like
doing prostrations before God at the Altar of Life.
Today, I feel the presence of trees as if they were people.
I know I am not imagining this. I know that Trees are beings
and a gift from God. They give us everything from Almonds,
walnuts, fruit, avocados, our homes, hardwood floors, frames for
art, furniture, paper, books, album and CD covers, and on and on it
goes. So to have a spiritual relationship with trees, that was worth my
life sacrifice. Now I can sit under the shade of a tree and relax and
know God.

One person can plant a million
trees or a million people can
each participate and plant one
tree each. Imagine that!
Together, we can reforest the
whole world!

Here I am with Gabrielle (another Tree Planter), in a helicopter,
going to reforest a remote cut block. I covered my head with a
t-shirt due to the intense mosquitoes biting me all over. Cana-
da forces American logging companies (who own most of the
timber rights in Canada) into spending a lot of money to make
sure reforestation is successful.
When cut blocks are unreachable by tree planting trucks and
crews, we get flown in helicopters to reforest these extreme
areas. On this day, we had to plant a terribly damaged block
and I really worked hard in the heat. After the day was over, we
had to hike out with all of our gear for several miles back down
to the logging road where we took off from.
I have personally reforested some of the steepest and most
treacherous cutblocks in Canada, mostly on the West Coast.
There are many stages to successful tree planting. First, cone
pickers gather seeds for the nurseries. Then, the trees are grown
for 1-3 years before planting. Tree seedlings have to be from
seeds that are the similar elevation that you are planting them
in. If they are not, the forests will not grow properly and may
die.
Foresters plan areas that need to be reforested and plan seedlots
and types of trees to be planted. Sometime we plant 3-5 species
in one area. Other times we plant all one species.
Then, tree planting contractors and foremen and women orga-
nize camps and tree planting crews. Trees are cached in boxes
and taken to the block by foremen and women. From there, the
tree planter goes to work. So many people are required to refor-
est successfully.

The United States has the seventh largest annual loss
of primary forests in the world. In the 2000-2005
period, the United States lost an average of 831 square
miles of “old-growth forests.”

Forest-Firewood Used for Drying Coffee
When we drink coffee, per cup, we are responsible for clearing a
patch of rainforest about the size of a coffee mug. That’s the amount
of forest, in Latin America at least, that is cleared for firewood to dry
the beans required for a cup of coffee. And if you drink a cup every
morning, 365 days per year, that adds up to a lot of forest. Each year
in Latin America, about 65 square kilometers (16,000 acres) are cut
to fuel coffee drying, according to the Mesoamerican Development
Institute. Rare species of flowers and and biology and deep levels of
the ecology become extinct.
Coffee is the second most valuable legally traded commodity on
Earth (after oil) with global retail sales of coffee estimated to be
$70 billion. When Buck Rogers landed his spaceship on Earth and
wanted a Caffeine “high,” he started a modern trend that is quickly
devouring the oxygen lungs of the earth: the rainforest.
Trees are necessary for the production of our global Oxygen
supply,which transforms into Ozone (Earth’s protective atmosphere).
Oxygen is necessary for all biological life forms to survive. Trees also
absorb CO2 (Greenhouse Gases) as they grow. In the Rainforests of
South America, plants with the cure for many diseases are in danger
of extinction, let alone rare flowers and other living things. Are we
willing to destroy the rainforests when the answer to so many human
problems may be discovered there?
Frog Venom Discovered to Be a Vital Weapon In Fighting Cancer
And Heart Disease. At the University of Ulster, Researchers have
found “Rain Forest” frog venom to be a vital solution in the fight
against killer conditions like cancer and heart disease. The team,
headed by Professor Chris Shaw, has discovered that molecules called
peptides, secreted by rain forest frogs to ward off predators, have the
potential to Dramatically reduce high blood pressure; Stop blood
clotting, an effective tool in the fight against Deep Vein Thrombosis
and heart disease; Tackle conditions that are resistant to treatment by
conventional antibiotics; Make crops resistant to insect attack; Help
tackle cancer tumours and leukemia and protect bone marrow against
damage during chemotherapy.
Professor Shaw from the School of Biomedical Sciences at the
University’s Coleraine campus said: “Biological warfare has been
going on in the rain forest for millions of years as each organism
living there has fought for its survival. I believe that we can put
that biological weaponry to use for the good of humankind in the
ultimate defeat of those diseases which have thus far remained
intractable.” We have to save the Rainforests to do this!
What Does a Cup of Coffee do
to the Rainforest?

29
Over 50% of the world’s
Coffee comes from Central
South America!
The beans are dried using wood-fired or diesel-powered dryers.
The wood-fired dryers contribute significantly to deforestation.
The Energy Department of the Honduran Ministry of Plan-
ning estimated that in Honduras alone 44,900 metric tons of
wood are burned annually to dry coffee. This is equivalent to
clear-cutting 763 hectares of forest annually, and accounts for
about 16% of the industrial consumption of wood in the entire
country. Forests are being devoured by the coffee cup.
Other methods for drying coffee are electric powered dryers.
But the energy required to dry coffee beans is staggering.
According to the Costa Rican Coffee Institute (ICAFE) and our
own regional surveys by the Institute, conventional mechanical
dryers consume 10.5-kilowatt hours of electricity for every one
hundred pounds of coffee dried. In addition, 0.12 cubic meters
of firewood, or firewood equivalent, is consumed for every one
hundred pounds of coffee dried! But “Coffeeeeee adddddicts”
get their fix every day! Per capita, the average Canadian drinks
402 cups of coffee per year, 77 more than in the U.S. (325 per
person) and 152 more than in Europe. Canadians spend $600
million a year on coffee for at-home consumption. Canadians
spend between $2.2 and $2.5 billion a year on brewed coffee.
Americans drink approximately 1.25 billion cups of coffee per
year. Yeoouww!
Can we still drink coffee and
not cut down a tree at the
same time? Coffee Giants
are being introduced to
Solar Energy Coffee Dryers!
Industrial Solar Coffee Drying Chambers at SanIsidro, Boaco,
Nicaragua Montes de Oro, Miramar, Costa Rica!
Solar thermal collectors allow coffee
to be dried in 24 hours without the
need for firewood!
They save energy, forests, and also reduce pollution from
energy derivatives. Find out more at: www.mesoamerican.org

Because trees make an excellent carbon sink (trees absorb CO2
- greenhouse gases) to offset global warming, Worlds Nest has
investigated the Paulownia Tree, native to China and Japan.
Due to its fast growing nature, the Paulownia tree is an ideal
wood source.
Instead of logging old growth forests in the rainforests for
exotic hardwoods, the Paulownia tree offers an excellent
alternative. By farming Paulownia Trees, we can offset the
destruction to our forests to a large degree.
Paulownia roots go down as far as forty feet regulating the
water table and removing soil salinity. Paulownia trees are
effective in absorbing waste pollutants from hog, chicken and
dairy facilities.
Giant leaves drop each winter, releasing nitrogen and increas-
ing soil fertility. In the orient, Paulownia is planted between
row crops for dramatic increases in production. The giant
leaves and rapid growth rate, act as huge lungs to scrub the air
of greenhouse gases and air pollution converting carbon diox-
ide into wood mass. Then releasing high levels of beneficial
oxygen.
Most Paulownia trees grown in the US are non-invasive. It is
rare for one to germinate from a stray seed. In fact, out of the
many thousands of trees we have grown, we have only seen
three grow from stray seeds.
Another amazing fact about Paulownia trees is that once you
cut them down, they grow right back in the same spot without
having to reforest, or replant the trees.
The trees also make good wood for furniture, and are com-
monly used in Japan for many commercial uses. The pulp can
also be used for making paper.
By planting more urban trees in our cities, we can create more
oxygen, shade extreme hot zones around homes and business-
es and reduce our air conditioning bills.
But the Paulownia Tree is just one example of hundres of pos-
sible trees we can plant in our urban environment. There are
many species of fast growing trees, such as Weeping Willows,
Oak, Japanese Maple, Cotton Woods, and more.
WorldsNest.com The Paulownia Tree Movement

31
The Paulownia Tree is called the World’s fastest growing Tree
because in just 3-5 years, it can be harvested for its hardwood.
Seedlings can be sprouted, as seen here, from small pieces of
the root. They grow right before your eyes. In just 3 short
years, you have a full size tree in your yard, the park, or
your business.
If you live in a hot climate like Los Angeles, Trees planted
near your home provide shade, cooling your home and
reducing your air conditioning bill.
But most of all, Trees provide so much beauty in our urban
environment. In Los Angeles, the organization Tree People has
planted over a million trees beautifying the Los Angeles basin.
To offset Greenhouse gases from our cars, we would need
to plant 1 tree for every 100 gallons of gasoline we use.
Or, 1 tree for every 1,000 kilowatt hours of electricity we
use from Coal or Gasoline Electric.
31
A Paulownia tree graces the streets of Los Angeles.
They are quickly becoming a tree of choice for quick growth
and landscaping beauty. Plant one on your property today!

Western Pine Beetle Kills Trees
Another devastating threat to the ecology caused by Global
Warming is the infestation of the Western Pine Beetle. As
draughts continue, due to warming trends, the pine beetle
thrives on decaying trees made vulnerable in draught condi-
tions. As the pine beetle thrives, huge tracts of forested lands
are devoured. Now forest fires can thrive as all of the dead
wood becomes fuel. A new problem emerges and destruction
to the forests becomes exponential.
One million or more trees may be killed each year during an
outbreak. It takes a single tree planter 20 years or more to
reforest a million trees. As more trees die, forests become
vulnerable to and increase forest fire danger by adding dead
wood to available fuels. Fires devastate our landscapes. As
we loose more trees, we loose oxygen, the primary component
for producing atmospheric Ozone. Also, trees absorb CO2 as
they grow and mature. Without trees, Global Warming trends
deepen exponentially.
Sub-sequentially, forest fires have been on the rise as Global
Warming escalates. 5,264,655 acres of U.S. forest was lost to
fires during 2002 - more than twice the annual average over
the past 10 years. In 2002, Canada lost 2.8 million hectares to
forest fires.
The eco-system of the Earth is so fragile, and in such balance,
if it is tipped in the wrong direction just a few degrees, the
results can be catastrophic.

By losing our forests, we are loosing the lungs of our earth.
Trees, swamps, algae, and seaweed all produce oxygen. Com-
promising oxygen in our atmosphere can be detrimental to
sustaining our atmosphere. Under solar radiation, oxygen
transforms into ozone in our upper atmosphere.
If we loose oxygen, we loose ozone. When ozone decays,
more intense ultraviolet light penetrates into our atmosphere.
UV light is much hotter in temperature than visible light, thus
the temperature increases even more, that higher temperature
gets trapped in the Greenhouse Gas environment, and Global
Warming escalates to even higher levels.
More and more forest fires devastate millions of acres each
year due to Global Warming, but even more important, pre-
cious wildlife loses its habitat, food sources, and many die. Is
this really happening because of the way we produce and use
energy? Yes!

Global Catastrophe
The U.S. has sustained 58 weather-related disasters during the
1980-2003 period, in which overall damages and costs reached
or exceeded $1 billion at the time of the event. Insurance
companies have to get Federal Aid just to survive. But how
may disasters do we have to undergo before we realize that
it makes economic sense to transform our energy economy
to an ecologically sustainable one?
In 1998, nearly 300 million people world-wide were forcibly
taken from their homes due to weather related disasters. The
population of the United States is 270 million. Can we really
imagine that Global Warming is causing or contributing to the
displacement of hundreds of millions of people?
The United States is home to more tornadoes than any other
country in the world, and 1998 was one of the worst years on
record. Through June, 1,019 tornadoes were formed in the
United States and with six months before year’s end, the
numbers exceeded the previous years.
Hurricanes, tropical storms, El Ninos, and other storms are on
the rise. The Southern US was hit by 4 successive, deadly
hurricanes in 2004. In 6 weeks. “Charley,” on Aug. 13, a
Category 4 hurricane, killed 34; “Frances,” on Sept. 5, killed 48.
“Ivan” swept from Grenada to Ala. and Fla. on Sept. 16,
killing 57 in the U.S., 66 in the Caribbean. “Jeanne,” on Sept.
26, flooded Fla. again, killing 28. Total U.S. damages from
the 4 hurricanes estimated to exceed $35 billion.
In 2005, Hurricane “Katrina” hit southern Florida on Aug.
25th. On August 29th, she slammed the Gulf Coast with 127
mph winds and major storm surges, destroying thousands of
homes and businesses, and causing massive flooding in Miss.,
Ala., and New Orleans where the levees failed. The death toll
was 1,323 “Katrina” was among the most devastating of U.S.
hurricanes with damages estimates at $100 billion. She was
followed by Rita and Wilma causing another $18-20 billion
in damage.
“The Impact of Global Warming on
Weather Patterns has been
under-estimated”
Dr. James E. Hansen,
Leading American Climate Change Scientist and Director
of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Science.
If we look at these numbers and realize that these are
disasters related to “Global Warming,” we can make a
pretty good assumption that it makes good economic
sense to invest in Sustainable technologies for our
future survival.

NASA Proves the Goal of
Sustainable Living in Space
NASA deserves a lot of credit. Solar power and Hydrogen Fuel Cells
started with NASA in the early Mercury, Gemini and Apollo missions
and are now used in the Space Shuttle and the International Space
Station (ISS).
Astronauts have proven the concept that humans can live inde-
pendent of electricity and water grid systems. They can also now
communicate wirelessly via satellite, wireless phones, television
and internet.
NASA is constantly testing and discovering new breakthrough
technologies that can benefit not only the astronauts and space
exploration, but human life on earth.
In fact, it is because of NASA that we have hydrogen fuel cell
technology today. The new International Space Station (ISS)
is a prime example of a home in space that is on its way to being
environmentally sustainable.
The International Space Station gets all of its electricity from the sun
(solar panels) and stores that energy in hydrogen fuel cells. They
make all of their own water from fuel cells, recycle it, and store it;
just as Angels Nest has.
The very fact that NASA is doing this now is proof that we can do it
on earth, in our own homes.

The Space Shuttle is powered with Liquid Hydrogen Fuel. The Space
Shuttle Orbiter has three fuel cell power plants onboard all reusable
and restartable. The fuel cells are located under the payload bay area
in the forward portion of the orbiter’s mid fuselage.

38
We owe so much to NASA’s Research and Testing of
Advanced Sustainable Technologies.
The new International Space Station is a joint effort
led by the United States.
The International Space Station draws upon the
scientific and technological resources of 16 nations:
The United States, Canada, Japan, Russia,
11 nations of the European Space Agency
and Brazil. The Station has a mass of about
1,040,000 pounds. It measures 356 feet across
and 290 feet long:
It has almost an acre of Solar Panels plus
Hydrogen Fuel Cells that provide electrical
power to six state-of-the-art laboratories.

If we can Live Sustainably in Space on the International

Michael Fulton, a NASA RD contract scientist, joined Worlds Nest
in the winter of 2005. In 2006, Michael Fulton introduced anoth-
er NASA contractor, Robert Walters of Entech Solar Inc., who, with
Michael, worked for over 16 years on advance solar power for space
applications. The solar technology being developed by Entech for
space power will forever change the face of the way we produce solar
energy here on earth. They engineered a major break-through in the
solar energy production that was used in 1998 to power NASA’s “Deep
Space One” space probe and is currently being tested on the Interna-
tional Space Station. The Entech team has found a way to more than
double the power output of a solar panel (per square meter) by con-
centrating sunlight through Fresnel lenses and magnifying it onto an
advanced solar cell.
How ingenious is this? Concentrating sunlight on smaller solar
energy chips means more electricity at a lower cost. While typical
solar panels have an average conversion efficiency of about 12%, this
new revolutionary solar panel is as high as 30% efficient. Entech’s
concentrators allow the manufacturing of solar panels using 95% less
silicon (a major expense in PV solar panels). Entech’s latest break-
through in solar power generation will produce 2 to 3 times more
power per square meter of panel space than conventional one-sun
panels. This means that solar energy will be much more affordable for
consumers than that provided by standard PV panels available today.
Aside: Michael Fulton designed the non-reflective glass window
coatings used on the International Space Station, which allows for the
very fine global photography presented throughout this book.

the World!
Michael Fulton
Director of Worlds Nest Research
Michael designed and produced the unique anti-reflection window coatings
for the International Space Station. He was also responsible for the hyper-
spectral filter coating on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. Critical to our
solar energy future he pioneered the UV protection coating for Entech’s
Fresnel silicone lenses used for advanced space solar power applications (Deep
Space One mission flown in 1998).
Early in his career he developed high energy laser damage resistant
coatings for the NOVA / SEVA large area laser fusion mirrors (Lawrence Liver-
more National Lab). One of Michael’s most significant contributions was the
development of advanced energetic deposition processes now used through-
out the optical coating industry (Ion Assisted Deposition). While in Singa-
pore, Michael coordinated the establishment of the Thin-Film Center of Excel-
lence for the Productivity and Standards Board. He also worked with a team
at Nanyang Technological University to invent a unique deposition technology
(Filtered Cathodic Arc). Back in the US, he worked with Andre Anders,
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, to propose the use of Filtered
Cathodic Arc technology for depositing advanced coatings in the vacuum of
space. While working at Rockwell Science Center, Michael worked with a team
to develop Laser Eye Protection coatings for pilots. Currently, he is producing
advanced coatings for a Phase II SBIR contract, developing radiation resistant
solar cell covers for space applications.

ENTECH’s Fresnel Lens
Solar Panels were also used
on NASA’s Deep Space 1 to
power its Electric Ion
Propulsion System.
NASA Deep Space 1 Solar Powered Satellite
NASA’s Deep Space 1 Solar Panels were designed by the ENTECH
team and Michael Fulton. 2.5 Kilowatts of solar energy combined
with low volumes of Xenon gas (fuel) drives the Ion Thruster
Engines to send the satellite spacecraft up to nearly 10,000 Miles
Per Hour. More energy will mean faster ion velocities. This allows
us to explore the solar system with low fuel weight and maximum
range. Ion thrusters are the new frontier for space propulsion
at NASA.
Michael Fulton is excited to be part of the Worlds Nest family.
He began his career in 1973 with Optical Coating Laboratory
Inc. in Santa Rosa, CA. During this time he pioneered Ion
Assisted Deposition technology for the production of advanced
thin-film optical interference coatings. He worked on many
space programs and early versions of laser protection coatings.
In 1990 Michael joined the Boeing High Technology Center
where he was instrumental in the development of UV protec-
tion coatings on silicone Fresnel lenses for space solar power
applications.
After Boeing closed the High Technology Center he moved to
Singapore and developed advanced coatings for night vision
applications. Upon returning to the US, he joined a small
company where he designed and produced the special coat-
ings for the International Space Station Windows. Michael then
joined the Rockwell Science Center where he worked on the La-
ser Eye Protection programs for military pilots. In 2003 he started
his own consulting company, Ion Beam Optics Inc.; where he has
devoted his time to solar energy technology development for
space power and terrestrial applications. Michael has a B.S. in
Chemistry and an M.A. from Sonoma State University.
Robert Walters has been working with his fellow founders of
ENTECH, Dr. Walt Hesse, Mr. Mark O’Neill, the inventor of
ENTECH’s innovative optics, and A. J. McDanal to develop
the advanced solar power systems. These individuals are great
scientists, engineers and humanitarians!

a solar system that uses water to cool the solar cells which in
term heats the water to about 160 degrees at the same time the
system is producing electricity. This means that hot water can be
used for home heating, bathing, washing, etc. at no additional

This Fresnel Lens takes
nearly a square meter of sunlight
and concentrates it into about
a square centimeter.
The solar cell assemblies, electrically insulated and encapsu-
lated for durability, use a unique patented optical device called
a prism cover to boost performance. An aluminum housing
supports and encloses the module. Each module is 0.9 m
(3’) wide, 3.7 m (12’) long, and 0.9 m (3’) high. Entech’s reli-
able Fresnel lens PV technology has been developed with help
from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Sandia National
Laboratories (Sandia), National Renewable Energy Laboratory
(NREL),several U.S.utilities and many other private enterprises.
DOE, Sandia, and NREL have recently established the National
Center for Photovoltaics.
Entech’s fourth-generation concentrator is the world’s largest
terrestrial PV module, with an aperture area of over 3 square
meters and a rated power output of 430 watts. This PV module
uses a large acrylic plastic Fresnel lens to focus sunlight onto
small silicon cells.
Concentrating the sunlight to 20 times its normal intensity
reduces the use of expensive silicon cell material by 95% (or
uses 5%), compared to conventional flat-plate PV modules. The
solar cells are mounted to an extruded aluminum heat sink (or
water cooling can be used for producing hot water), keeping the
cells about as cool as conventional one-sun cells.

Michael Fulton (Director of World’s Nest Research Institute) and
Edward Palen, PhD., P.E. (Palen Solutions Optoelectronic Packag-
ing Consulting) have joined together to provide lower cost solar
modules for the expanding photovoltaic market. Building upon
the space power concentrator technology, developed for NASA by
Boeing and EntechInc., Cool Planet Solar Inc. is now developing
low cost manufacturing of the silicon concentrator modules re-
quired to meet the future demand for solar energy. Cool Planet
Solar Inc. is working with Entech and other companies to fully
commercialize the concentrator solar energy technology. Because
of the much lower production cost, due to use of 95% less sili-
con, concentrators are the next leap forward in the production of
electricity from the sun. By using mono-crystalline silicon single
junction cells with a back collector grid, and a high efficiency light
scattering on the front-side, the cell efficiency is expected to be at
least 20%.
Cool Planet Solar Inc. (CPS) will work with Entech Inc., using the
field proven large (0.5m by 2.5 m) concentrators with sun track-
ing, to implement this ideally suitable technology for communities
and solar farms. CPS will fill the niche of the home and com-
mercial building market by using its new solar concentrators that
have the same roof profile as the one-sun panels now used in the
market place. By working with a new large volume silicon solar
cell manufacturer CPS is projecting a cost of one dollar per Watt
for installed solar panels.
Currently, the annual global market for terrestrial solar
photovoltaic systems is over US$ 8 Billion and growing
exponentially. The market for PV module production
in 2004 was a remarkable 1,194 megawatts, a 60%
increase over the 744 MW in 2003 shown in the graph
to the right. Many groups project that annual glob-
al sales will exceed US$20 billion by the year 2010,
or before.

Galbreath Wildlands Preserve Observatory
World’s Nest has joined the School of Science and Technology at
Sonoma State University (SSU) to establish a world-class astronomi-
cal observatory within the 3700 acre Galbreath Wildlands Preserve.
The telescope will be in the 1-meter size range designed for research
by students and faculty at the University. The Galbreath facility will
be one of the largest research telescopes in Northern California.
When completed, it will be only the second of two such instruments
available to students and faculty within the California State Univer-
sity System (CSU).
In addition to astronomical research and education, the Galbreath
Observatory will be built using World’s Nest sustainable tech-
nology and serve as a test-bed for research in environmentally
conscious planning and management. The latest “green” con-
struction and building management techniques, environmental
monitoring, alternate energy generation, and telecommunications
will be used to build and operate the observatory.
We intend to design, construct and operate the facility using the
latest “green” techniques, creating an observatory with negligible
impact on the environment and ecosystem. For example, we will not
pave any existing roads, or any additional roads, which are required
for access to the observatory. Furthermore, because of our need
for stable atmospheric conditions, we will use materials that mini-
mize temperature fluctuations in the structures so that little power
will be consumed in regulating the temperature of the buildings.
The World’s Nest team, lead by Michael Fulton (Distinguished SSU
Alumni 2006), will work with SSU to provided the power require-
ments for the observatory facility and associated instrumentation.
The project’s goal is to make the facility energy self-sufficient and
“off the grid.” We intend to generate the energy required for the proj-
ect locally using means which do not depend on fossil fuels. We will
consider all possible alternative energy sources including solar,
wind, and hydroelectric. Michael Fulton will be working closely
with Dr. Saeid Rahimi (Dean of the SSU School of Science and
Technology: saeid.rahimi@sonoma.edu 707-664-2171) to estab-
lish a completely sustainable educational facility for astronomy and
environmental research. In addition World’s Nest will work with SSU
to completely document the construction of the sustainable observa-
tory, including plans for a book and movie.

Wind is one of the oldest forms of
Renewable Energy - dating all the way back to
700 B.C. It was used to sail boats by the ancient Egyptians.
Water and Advanced Wind Power was first used by
Humans (c. 500 B.C.).Water and more advanced use of wind
power gave man a more complex source of energy. The use
of energy from the wind through the use of windmills and
paddle wheels goes back to ancient Europe. The energy
harvested from the wind and water was used to grind wheat
and grain.
Today, wind is one of the two most preferred ways to
produce renewable electrical energy.
Evolving Wind Power Today!

52
The advantage of a vortex is that the blades to do not need to be
turned into the wind, and they can capture wind from any direction.
Other states with sizable wind plants include Colorado, Iowa,
Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota,
Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Washington, West
Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
We do not have to wait for our State to adopt wind power. We can
install smaller systems for our own homes and communities. One
megawatt of wind capacity is enough to supply 240 to 300 average
American homes.
The best thing about wind is that it can be available rain or shine, night
or day. Solar is limited to day time only, and some days can produce
very little energy due to cloud cover or snow. Combined with home
solar power, wind can also assist you in becoming sustainable in geo-
graphical locations with more cloud cover and less days with sun.
Engineering more efficient home-sized wind systems is a strong area of
interest at Angels Nest. This Vortex Wind Power system is being tested
experimentally at Angels Nest.

Vertical Axis Wind Turbines can provide
power from the wind in a small space. These
turbines have a spiral blade instead of a more
traditional propeller blade. Moving air carries
kinetic energy, which spins the turbine blade.
At the bottom of the turbine is a generator that
can convert that movement into useful electrical
power (inside the copper box).
What is VAWT?

54
How much wind generating capacity currently exists in the U.S.?
How much will be added over the next several years?
At the end of 2004, U.S. capacity reached 6,740 MW. Utility -
scale wind power projects now under construction or under
negotiation will add at least 5,000 megawatts of wind capacity in
the U.S. over the next five years. The U.S. Department of Energy
has announced a goal of obtaining 6% of U.S. electricity from
wind by 2020—a goal that is consistent with the current rate of
growth of wind energy nationwide.
As public demand for clean energy grows, and as the cost of
producing energy from the wind continues to decline, it is
likely that wind energy will provide a growing portion of the
nation’s energy supply.
California is the state in which most wind power develop-
ment has occurred up to now. As of the end of 2004, the
Golden State had a total of 2,096 MW of wind generating
capacity, with Texas ranking second at 1,293 MW.
Today, Wind Power is a Growth Trend!

Turby - A Revolution in Residential
Commercial Wind Power Applications!
The long awaited arrival of affordable and
highly efficient wind power is upon us.
Now you can have the beauty of Modern
Architecture and Wind Power at the same
time.
Turby blends into the landscape of Modern
Architecture as if it were part of the design.
These beautiful wind systems can be
installed on every commercial or
residential location in the world.
the Turby is the greatest achieve-
ment and revolution in compact
wind power systems for a number
of reasons. First, it is architectur-
ally beautiful for modern business
parks or homes. Second, it is nearly
silent, and allows wind to enter from
any direction to produce power. The
Turby produces up to 3 Kilowatts
of electricity at peak performance
and can produce energy even when
winds are as slow as a few miles per
hour. Placing it high on commercial
or residential buildings allows it to
capture maximum wind potential..

Photovoltaic cells convert light into electrical power
These cells are assembled into arrays that can capture the energy in sunlight and make it available to run household appliances.
Their efficiencies are typically from 10% to 21%. More efficient cells exist but they are presently very expensive.
On any given day, the light from the Sun is roughly one thousand watts per square meter of area.
A square meter of solar cells can make about 200 watts of electrical power available.
Cheap solar cells would mean that sun power would be affordable by nearly anyone where the skies are not overcast.
Light is energy. It comes in small
packets called “photons”. These photons
strike atoms inside the solar cell and release
electrons, the tiny charged particles that
form electrical current. When this happens,
the solar cell acts like a battery and can
power nearly any electrical device. Many
cells can be wired together to provide a
large amount of power. When the photons
collide with the electrons (shown in green),
the electrons are literally knocked free of
the atoms and can flow to the fine grid of
collector electrodes printed on the surface
of the cell.
Solar panels can provide the power to run your home!
A collection of solar panels is shown here providing electricity for
the Angel’s Nest. Silent, clean electrical power results from the
sunlight falling on these panels. New developments are bringing
the cost of these panels down so that anyone will be able to afford
them.

Skylights at
Angels Nest
They are virtually in every room. Also, the skylights open to allow
air flow in every room. The more we open our windows to the sky,
the more beauty we have access to.
The Pyramid room is all open windows and is the best room
at Angels Nest to get a star field view of the night sky. It is also
spectacular and bright in the daytime.
63

64
South-East Facing Windows
Natural light like this also adds a lot of warmth to your living
space. Plants also thrive on natural light, giving more oxygen and
thermal heat to your environment. If you are creative in how you
place your solar windows and skylights, you can also avoid harsh
sunlight and unwanted direct exposure. Consult with Angels Nest
to find out how you can avoid having your home become too hot
from solar windows or too cold. Double insulated glass is also
recommended.
By taking advantage of solar lighting and southeast facing windows,
your home can reduce its daylight lighting energy bill. At the same
time, you can draw in passive solar heating. At 7,000 feet above sea
level, Angels Nest warms up quickly, even in the dead of winter on a
common sunny morning. Natural light is also uplifting to the
human spirit. Studies on higher learning have shown that the
human mind is more receptive to learn while being bathed with
natural pure white light opposed to artificial and unbalanced light.

Energy Efficient Lighting
This doesn’t mean you have to live in the dark and use candles.
You can use a multitude of energy efficient light bulbs for
reading or just lighting a room. But Fiber Optic Lighting
can be very magical, when used to create mood.
Angels Nest uses many colored lights, light bulbs, halogens
and Fiber Optic Lights in all of its rooms.
Remember that energy efficiency is important in managing
your total energy usage for your home. The more you can
focus on energy usage in every aspect of your home and
appliances, the less energy you will have to produce with
solar and wind power. Energy savings equals less money.
From Sky lighting to Fiber Optics, lighting is magical at
Angels Nest. This Fiber Optic circular hanging bed floats
above the indoor greenhouse with a panoramic view of the
Taos, New Mexico Mountain range. It is like Faerie Land!

TWO METHODS OF PASSIVE SOLAR HEATING
SOLAR WINDOWS and
SOLAR HOT WATER TILE FLOORING
According to the Department of Energy (DOE), heating and
cooling account for about 56% of the energy use in a typical
U.S. home, making it the largest energy expense
for most homes.
This challenge is one of the most important at Angels
Nest. At 7,000 feet above sea level, temperatures can
drop in Winter to well below zero. The goal is to use
very little energy to heat the home in Winter and use very
little energy to keep it cool in the Summer.
Angels Nest has numerous windows. Windows are key
to letting in lots of sunlight. However, without proper
design features, in the Summer, the building would
overheat. Sunlight gives Heat and life to Plants. Plants
give off heat and humidity. This is the first level of
natural heating at Angels Nest.
70

72
The next level of heating was designed by Robert Plarr. He wanted
3 Zones that can be separated with sliding glass doors: Zone 1, the
outer Blackwater Greenhouse, Zone 2, the Graywater Greenhouse and
Zone 3, the innermost region (Bedrooms and living spaces). There are
living spaces inside of the first 2 zones. However at night, when it is too
cold, people can retreat to the inner zones as temperatures decrease.
3 HEATING COOLING zone system
Most of the Windows are in Zone 1. Even on cold winter nights, when
it is subzero outside, zone 3 can be 65-75 degrees inside with no added
heating. In the Summer, Zone 3 (where the Bedrooms are) can also be
the coolest since they are away from the direct sun exposure. On really
hot days, window covers can be drawn like curtains to block out the
sun’s most intense exposure.
72

73
How Does Solar Heating Work?
By circulating water through the heat collector, we can move the heat where we need it,
such as to a water tank, swimming pool, or through a floor heating system inside a home.
Sunlight carries a lot of energy, and when it
shines on objects, that energy usually becomes
heat. Dark objects reflect less light and so
become hotter, while light colored objects
remain cooler because they reflect more light.
By placing dark objects in the sunlight, we can
gather a large quantity of heat.

77
ZONE 2 - THE 2ND INNER REGION
Zone 2 is a moderate temperature zone that is very comfort-
able for daytime activities or for lounging. This is the Yoga
Conference Room at Angels Nest. Winter or Summer, at
7,000 feet, this room is always comfortable with no added
heating or cooling. If it gets too hot, the doors can be closed
locking it off from Zone 1,which receives the most direct sun
exposure by day and the and is the coolest area at night.
This Zone 2 area is around 65 - 70o
F, with no added heating
or cooling. Skylight windows can be opened for cooling or
airflow. However, if the room does get too cold in winter;
there is another way to get the whole house to warm up. This
is called Solar Mass Heating. Sunlight naturally heats up
tiles and the mass of the building by day.
77

78
ZONE 3 - inmost region bedroom
Zone 3 is a comfort zone Winter or Summer. It is Amazing that at
7,000 feet, Angels Nest attained its goal of keeping a 10,000 square
foot home in a balanced temperature region that is comfortable with
no added heating or cooling. The two Master Bedrooms are round
adobe finish with their own bathrooms.
If you want to get the bedrooms and the whole house beyond the
natural temperature of 65 - 70 degrees F., then you can turn on
the heating systems to bring the temperature up to 85 degrees (if you
really want it that warm).

Solar Hot Water Radiant Floors
This system was invented in ancient Greece where they used
spaces beneath mosaic tile floors to channel Central Heating.
Now we have modernized ancient Greek technology. Under-
neath the bamboo floors are hot water tubes that feed hot water
underneath your wooden or tile floors to heat up the thermal
mass. Thermal mass holds heat and distributes it much more
effectively that heating up air mass. The problem with heating
up air mass is that any leaks, open windows or poor insulatiing
qualities can cause huge energy losses very quickly. When we
heat up the mass of our floors, the heat gets stored in the floor
and slowly radiates off into the room. If a window or door
opens slightly, there is a heat loss; but the heat energy stored in
the floors is not lost so quickly.
Zone 1 First Level Floors at Angels Nest
The water can either be heated with solar tubes or by a hydro-
gen or other bio-fuels gas boiler. New solar tubes can heat
water to 200 Degrees, far above what is needed for bathing.

The Angels Nest Energy
Pod uses Advanced Solar
Energy and Integrated Hot
water; Vortex Wind Power;
Hydrogen Fuel Cells for storage
and power delivery; Flex Fuels;
Electrolyzer to make Hydrogen
Fuel from water; a Hydrogen
Well to store hydrogen;
a hydrogen fuel station for
vehicles, and biofuels.
The traditional way to store wind and solar energy is in a rack of lead
acid batteries, like car batteries. This is the way that storage happens
in most solar powered homes. But this is going to be a thing of the
past as batteries are the least efficient way to store electrical power.
Other systems don’t store energy but tie it into the grid and sell pow-
er to their public utility and buy it back as they use it. But a system
like that doesn’t give you power in an emergency, natural disaster,
terrorist or military attack, or natural power failure.
So Angels Nest has developed a ground breaking home energy pod
that stores, manages and supplies your electric power to your home
or vehicle. Made from wind, solar or hydrogen, the energy pod is
like power central for your Home.
Angels Nest has taken up the use of a its own Hydogen Electro-
lyzer made by Proton to make its own hydrogen from waste solar
energy.
Waste solar energy is defined as energy that is above the demand
load of storage and use for your home and solar or wind electrical
energy generating capacity. Once your usage is full, you can make
excess hydrogen that can be stored, and converted back into elec-
tricity via your hydrogen fuel cell system, or used as a gas to run
your car, heat water, or operate your gas stove.
Anything can run on hydrogen today with the advent of the Hy-
drogen Fuel cell. Hydrogen fuel cells have come a long way and are
ready for home and vehicle use now.
The battery Room tells us how much power is being produced with
the solar and wind systems, how much we are using and how much
power we have left. In case of no wind or sun for too many days, we
can use the Hydrogen-Diesel back-up generator. This is critical to
have in case of emergencies.
The advantage of the Hydrogen Well system is that the hydrogen can
be used to run through the hydrogen fuel cell to produce electricity on
demand. It can be used for heating water for bathing or for the hot wa-
ter floors, and also for fueling the hydrogen vehicles. The Hydrogen
Well System revolutionizes Energy Storage Systems.
Batteries are used
today at Angels Nest
to store electrical
Energy, but below,
the new system of
storing energy in the
Hydrogen Well acts as

What is a Hydrogen Fuel cell?
NASA has been using Hydrogen Fuel Cells since the 1960s. A fuel
cell is an electrochemical device that produces electricity efficient-
ly, silently and without combustion. Hydrogen fuel (which can be
obtained from water or from hydrocarbon sources such as Waste,
Gasified Trash) is combined with oxygen (from the air) to produce
electrical energy.
What is the difference between a fuel cell
and a battery?
Fuel cells and batteries are similar in that they both deliver electrical
power from a chemical reaction. In a battery, the chemical reactants
are stored within the battery; they are used up during the reaction
and the battery must be recharged or thrown away. In a fuel cell,
the reactants (fuels) are stored externally, so it will keep producing
electricity as long as fuel is supplied. In short, a fuel cell vehicle is
refueled instead of recharged.
How do hydrogen fuel and oxygen
produce electrical energy?
A Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell is comprised of a plas-
tic membrane coated with a catalyst on both sides and sandwiched
between two electrode plates. Hydrogen (from a fuel tank) and oxy-
gen (from the air) are fed through channels in the plates on opposite
sides of the membrane. The hydrogen and oxygen atoms are attracted
to each other, but only the proton part of the hydrogen atom can pass
through the membrane to reach the oxygen.
The electron has to take the long way around the membrane to reach
the oxygen atom—creating an electric current in the process. The
electron is eventually reunited with the proton and an oxygen atom
to create water (H2O).
Is hydrogen a safe fuel?
When handled properly, hydrogen is a safe fuel. For many decades,
hydrogen has been produced and used for commercial and industrial
purposes with an exemplary safety record. Like all fuels, hydrogen
has high energy content and must be handled with care. Hydrogen is
used on the NASA Space Shuttle as a rocket fuel very safely.
Like gasoline and other fuels, hydrogen is flammable. Unlike other
fuels, it is very buoyant. With proper ventilation, hydrogen dissipates
rapidly into the air, greatly reducing the chance of fire. Hydrogen
is non-toxic, so if released it does not present a health hazard to
humans and its effect on the environment is benign.
Are Fuel Cells ready for Home Use Today?
The Answer is “Yes.”
Angels Nest is using them and so can you!

83
We take the electricity we generate from wind and solar and make
hydrogen with an electrolyzer. The electrolyzer splits the H2O (water)
down to two separate components: Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O).
We store the hydrogen in the Hydrogen Well.
Intelligent Energy Fuel Cells
The stored Hydrogen is converted into electricity as we need it, upon
demand, with the Hydrogen Fuel cell. If a light switch goes on, elec-
tricity flows. We use the Intelligent Energy System at Angels Nest.
Simple and cost effective, Intelligent has designed Fuel Cell Energy
stacks and systems from first principles and combined novel fluid and
thermal management techniques with metal plate architecture.
The result is fundamentally simpler and cheaper Hydrogen Fuel Cells.
They have one of the most advanced PEM fuel cell stack technolo-
gies available in the world today with a class-leading power to volume
performance in excess of 2.5kW per litre. Small and reliable Integrated
humidification and cooling reduces the number of components needed
to give a fundamentally smaller and more reliable power generation
system. These fuel cells can be used for camping, powering your home
or your electric fuel cell vehicle.
Intelligent Energy is the only company to have reported an unas-
sisted cold start from -40 degrees C without the use of antifreeze.
Another remarkable first. Broad portfolio its PEM stack technolo-
gies span the power range - from a few tens of watts through a few
kilowatts to more than 100kW.
To power a modest 3 bedroom home, 2.5 - 3 Kilowatts is sufficient
to run all major appliances: lighting, TV, Washer-Dryer, Hair dryer,
Computers, Kitchen Fridge, Blenders, etc.
In application terms - from laptop computer to powering your home
or vehicle, Intelligent Energy has designed and developed a number
of system platforms using their world leading stack technologies as a
foundation, including:
3 Generator Unit
3 Motive Car Engine
3 CHP unit
3 Personal power pack
3 Motor cycle power train

84
Intelligent Energy’s Fuel Cells
Intelligent Energy’s fuel cells are available from as small as a portable
50-watt supply (Enough to run your personal computer while you
are camping or in a remote distant location), to 75 Kilowatt models
that can run a fully operational business location or hospital.
Combined with your hydrogen storage tank, small or large,
you are your own utility. You do not have to rely on your public
utility to supply your home or business with electrical power. That is
freedom.
Consult with Angels Nest to discover what power rating fuel cell you
will need for your home or business.
The Future of Fuel Cells
Hydrogen fuel cells are becoming more and more cost effective and
less expensive. Another company that Angels Nest uses is Cenergie
in England. They are developing very cost effective Alkaline Fuel
Cells that do not use Palladium or Platinum, the most expensive
materials used in fuel cells today.
The goal it to make fuel cells affordable to the consumer. Platinum
and palladium play a large role in the technology. Platinum is the
medium used to convert hydrogen and oxygen to heat, water and
electricity. Palladium will likely also play a role in the fuel cell, as
well, but it is unknown yet how big. Palladium, as a hydride, can
absorb 800 to 900 times its own volume of hydrogen, at room
temperature and atmospheric pressure.
Cenergie boasts that their all-plastic fuel cell that can convert not
only hydrogen into electricity; but also can convert waste and garbage
directly from a gasification process. That is the future of fuel cells:
cost effective, and energy efficient in handling many waste streams
to obtain hydrogen.
Since hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, there
are many ways to get hydrogen for human use other than from
electricity and water. We will be exploring our waste streams next as
an energy source, converting ordinary garbage and human sewage
to fuels.

Trash and Sewage are one of the greatest problems in a sustainable life-
style model. The average American household generates in excess of 3
tons of solid waste per year. The United States alone produces some 262
million tons of waste garbage per year, or 652 thousand tons per day.
New companies are now successfully gasifying waste, sludge and
garbage to make hydrogen. The Hydrogen can then be used with
Hydrogen Fuel Cells to make electricity for electric cars and motor-
bikes or to power homes. Innovative Logistics Solutions is introducing
the Pyromex gasification technology from Switzerland. The Pyromex
technology and process have been developed by a leading group of
Pyrolysis scientists in Switzerland and introduced into the U.S. market
by ILS-Partners and Angels Nest.
Ultra-High temperature gasification process of waste material gener-
ates no toxic residues or emissions. Non-organic by-product residue is
a non-toxic basalt like material that is usable as a building material. An
organic by-product is “pyrogas,” which is typically used for electricity
generation. This system shows great efficiency by recovering 100% of
the energy contained in waste materials.
The advantage of the Pyromex system over a traditional gasification
plant is that it uses higher temperatures between 1200 and 1700
degrees Co
(2192 to 3092 degrees Fo
). At these temperatures, virtually
all of the organic portion of the waste material is decomposed into its
basic elements thereby generating hydrogen rich synthetic gas. The
process uses a small fraction of the amount of energy it generates,
making it economical as an energy production facility.
The Pyromex Plant produces zero harmful emissions and can solve the
problem of sewage and garbage streams at the same time. The resulting
hydrogen is 99.999% pure and ready to be used in fuel cells or hydro-
gen vehicles.
Gasification of any city, township, state, province, or country’s waste
streams can produce enough hydrogen to heat homes and run vehicles.
This can also supply additional electricity in varying amounts, depend-
ing on how many gasification plants countries are willing to manu-
facture and operate. Gasification plants can be made in many sizes.
One day soon, a home refrigerator-size gasifier will be commercially
available.
This plant can take a variety of waste streams such as waste
water sludge, animal and human waste, green waste, used
tires (300 million used tires are thrown into US landfills each
year), manufacturing waste, plastics, etc., and make hydrogen.
Gasification of Trash Waste

88
According to the United Nations, 99 percent of water on
Earth is unsafe for drinking and bathing. About 1.2 billion
people worldwide lack safe water to consume and 2.6 billion
do not have access to adequate sanitation.
At least 2 million people, most of them children, die annually
from water-born and stagnant water related diseases such as:
diarrhea, cholera, dysentery, typhoid, guinea worm, hepati-
tis, malaria and West Nile virus. We must also consider that
many regions of the world have mercury and other heavy
metal pollution, known to cause cancer and birth defects.
CLEAN WATER, A DIMINISHING RESOURCE
Many of the 10 million child deaths that occurred last year
were linked to unsafe water and lack of sanitation. Children
can’t fight off infections if their bodies are weakened by water-
born diseases.
Over half of the hospital beds in the developing world are
occupied by people suffering from preventable diseases
caused by unsafe water and inadequate sanitation.
If action is not taken soon, 135 million people may die of
water-related diseases by the year 2020. That is a larger
number than those expected to fall victim to the HIV/AIDS
pandemic; a catastrophe that has already killed 23 million
people so far.

1. As we expel greenhouses gases into the atmosphere, a
thermal blanket is formed (trapping in heat).
2. The planet gets hotter and ice melts into the sea.
3. Sea levels rise and cold weather patterns move south.
4. Forests get less rain in the northern regions and get attacked

our atmosphere.
6. Plant life starts to die; and desertification takes shape.
7. Water becomes more and more scarce in many regions,
while others have massive floods. The balance of water

conflicts over water in Bangladesh, Tadjikistan, Malaysia, Angola, East Timor, Namibia, Bostwana, Zambia,
Ecuador and Peru. Several terrorist groups have threatened to poison water systems and water distribution has
been regularly targeted in Iraq.

Roof Rain Water Collection to Cistern Storage

Rain falls from the sky in even the most draught struck regions on
the planet. Trees and Plants Capture Rainwater and Store it in their
Root Systems. They have been doing this (as a successful model for
humans to follow) for millions of years.
Angels Nest Rain Water Capture Systems are Modeled after Mother
Nature’s Unique Design. We capture the rain that falls from the sky
and store it underground, similar to how trees and plants do it. Rain
and snowmelt (on the rainwater capture surface areas of the roof
Architecture) are where most of the water comes from at Angels
Nest. Taos, New Mexico receives between 8 and 10 inches of rain per
year; making it a near draught region.
Angels Nest Rainwater Capture Systems
Currently most people rely on lengthy and expensive waterway
projects from rivers and plumbing systems. Capturing water from
snow and rain on your own roof makes water more accessible.
The captured water flows down channels along the architecture
where it flows into a 5,000-gallon water cistern, equal to 20,000
gallons of water; since it is reused 6 times. The water is stored there
for first time use.
There is not a single country in the populated world where water
does not fall from the sky. At Angels Nest, water is scarce. The ex-
periment to reuse water 6 times allows humans access to clean water
for drinking, bathing and water for plants.
96

97
In the United States, the average person uses 200 gallons of
water per day. Angels Nest uses 75% less water than other
existing buildings; because it recycles its water 6 times.
Here are the 6 ways to re-use water in a closed system:
1. We capture the water on the roof and store it in
the 5,000-gallon cistern.
2. We bathe, shower, cook, and clean with water.
3. The water then flows into the greenhouse gray water rainforest
cell. The plants use the water, which is then re-captured in the
cell. From there, the used water is collected in a well.
4. The water is used again for flushing the toilets. 60% of all
household water use is for flushing toilets.
5. The toilet water flows into the Black Water Greenhouse Systems;
where plants bio-remediate all of the human waste.
6. Air to Water captures humidity for pure drinking water.
Water has to be re-used and re-purified in climates where water is
scarce. If systems like this were installed in homes and businesses in
the Third World, disease could be controlled, and children would grow
up in a safe water environment.
Victoria is excited about bringing sustainable awareness to people all
over the world. Angels Nest/Worlds Nest has an amazing solution
for Water Management and capture systems for Third World Coun-
tries. Victoria Peters was invited to attend the World Peace Summit
at the U.N. in NYC. Along with Ted Turner, she met with world
spiritual leaders, to help find solutions.
The United Nations has set a Millennium Development Goal— to
be reached by 2015 — of reducing by half the percentage of people
without access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation. There is
a long way to go to reach this goal. That’s why the U.N. General
Assembly declared the next 10 years to be the International
Decade for Action on “Water for
Life” in order to focus attention on
this vital issue. By 2025 the world’s
population is projected to increase
from 6.4 billion to 8.4 billion.
At that time, 3.4 billion people
could live in countries where
water is scarce.

Manage your own water treatment and purification systems.
That is what we are doing; and so can you!
Vortex Water Treatment: Since water becomes stagnant when
it sits in a cistern, we have to keep it moving to keep water
energized and alive. In nature, water flows in streams over
rocks and pebbles. This keeps it in a natural vortex, spinning
and bubbling with life and positive energy.
Vortex Water Systems are Everywhere at Angels Nest. They are in
most of the greenhouses and also on the drinking water dispens-
ing systems. When water sits in plastic bottles it becomes lifeless,
losing its energy. It is not good for drinking. Water also carries
heavy toxic metals such as lead from traveling through city pipes.
Plastic waterlines can leech harmful PCBs into the drinking wa-
ter. So what is the solution?
