Passive Solar Building Practices

Off the topic of animals and Celtic fantasy...Let's educate people about Passive solar building practices. Make a sim city fossil fuels game with the ultimate goal being to  create a passive solar community that is really independent of fossil fuels. The game would teach people (especially children) about passive solar building and how feasible and necessary it is. Certainly ancient cultures took into account which way the sun was shining when they built their dwellings. There are some great passive solar house designs that were the result of a contest that was the effort of President Carter. The goal of the contest was to design homes that were affordable and that use no fossil fuels for heat. http://www.builditsolar.com/Projects/SolarHomes/91HomesBook/West/West.htm Just a wee rant....
