How do I ask DIY to add a Green Message Board for discussion about home energy interests such as alternative technologies, conservation and reducing energy use in general? There don't seem to be many postings related to those interests but if the opportunity to share experiences and ask questions were available there might be a number of people who would benefit. My interests are in saving money and reducing dependency on fossil fuels. Until I can afford a PV installation I'm doing what I can to reduce energy use and upgrade the insulation in my house. Would DIY consider a Green Message Board, considering that green building industry is so popular now?

Perhaps they are listening?

Closest thing now is the Environmental board on the HGTV message board. It is a sibling message board to this one, with a few more categories.
