Wind Wheels look like Art Objects

In January 2014, the Florida Green Building Coalition (FGBC) certified the City of Fort Lauderdale as a Florida Green Local Government. That means that the city has demonstrated its leadership in environmental protection and in using sustainable energy resources. One of the City project is the power pumps for electric cars in the Mills Pond Park.
The four wind wheels, which are visible from the I-95 look like art objects. However, they are real wind wheels and produce power for car batteries. The wind wheels and car power pumps are already installed. However, they are not yet operating. As soon as the stations are ready and open to the public these station should power several cars at the same time and the additional power will go into the power grid.


As soon as these pumps are running, you can go and enjoy the recreation areas in the park and at the same time fuel your car batteries. All that without the ugly smell of a gas station and the air pollution afterwards.


The Florida Green Building Coalition (FGBC) is a nonprofit Florida Corporation. It mission is to lead and promote sustainability with environmental, economic and social benefits to communities.

What a great idea and Florida is the perfect place with its sunshine and wind power for this mission.

“You are the best and the brightest!”

Wow – that sounds so good and pampers my soul and self-esteem very much. I am normally not the person who is complaining about the circumstances and the life hurdles in general but sometimes I too need this pat on the shoulder.

I am serving on several committees in our association. To do so have I have to take classes to fulfill my duties. Yesterday there was the day for the Code of Ethics and what is right and wrong and how to deal with violations of the Code.

The first question from our instructor: “why are you here?” “We would like to learn”, “we need this information to do a good job” and so on. That was not what the instructor wanted to hear: “You are the best and the brightest and you are selected for your position because you are the ones who have already demonstrated your knowledge and experience in the business.”

To some real estate professionals the Code of Ethics seems to be without any meanings and they behave like that. The result is that we not only hurt each other and far more important we hurt the public and our clients. We depend on their trust and to gain their trust back is a piece of work.

Why not do it right from the beginning and make everyone happy – our buyers, sellers and ourselves? We will get our reward – commission, self-esteem and the trust of our customers much easier.
