On the 44-square mile island of Samsoe off the coast of Denmark, 4,200 residents are officially off the grid - The entire island's electricity needs are being met by wind turbines and 70 percent of their heat derives from solar panels, hay building construction techniques and biomass. Next step? Residents are rallying to use biodiesel fuel in their automobiles. (Thanks to my friend Kelley, a very talented photographer, for this tip.)
