You mean they're actually going through with it? Awesome! I hope it works as well as planned.

I'm extremely interested in the aftermath of all this. The building itself is clever and all, but what will the ecological impact be? Wind farms kill birds and bats and there's evidence the sound drives many more off, concentrated solar has a nasty habit of significantly heating the air around the plant and hydro-dams are enormously destructive no matter how you look at it. What's a 1/2-mile-tall heat pump going to do?
