I was all set to write a big roundup of the efforts to green this year's Burning Man, with a theme this year of The Green Man, but Micki Krimmel over at WorldChanging.com did it for me.  Coupled with the excellent-as-always treatment that the big fiery festival got a few weeks ago from Grist.org and a surprising good article CNNMoney.com, there's not much else for me to say. 

One cool event worth pointing out is the Single Cell Solution, an art project that's going to use urine (an excellent fertilizer) to grow algae.  The algae will get even more stimulation from the exhaust from some of the many generators around the site, sequestering the CO2.  These particular algae give off an oily byproduct that can then be burned as biodiesel in the same generators.  It's all pretty cool stuff, and organizations like the USAF and Honeywell are busy trying to get these algae to do their thing on a larger scale.  Check it out:  link.

If you're going to Burning Man, have a great time and leave comments about what you thought of the green theme.

Update 18 October 2007:  Clayton Cornell over at GreenOptions went to Burning man and has two very good posts on how the whole green thing panned out.  Post I.  Post 2.
