			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="small;">I have been </span><span style="small;">think</span><span style="small;"><span class="blsp-spelling-error">ing</span> about the possibility of building a greenhouse. I thought I would see if there are any other designs out there that are better than the standard. Here are a few that stood out: </span></p>
<h3>Energy <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Efficient</span></h3>
<p>The university of Missouri-Colombia in the US has put out an <a href="http://aes.missouri.edu/swcenter/research/Solar-heated%20greenhouse.pdf">excellent design for an <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected">energy</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected">efficient</span> greenhouse</a>. It involves using raised beds to maximise heat <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected">received</span> by plants and black drums filled with water that soak up the heat in the day and release it at night.</p>
<h3><span style="medium;"><span class="blsp-spelling-error">Foldable</span> Plastic</span></h3>
<p>Dutch designer <a href="http://blog.ecolect.net/2008/06/daniel-schippers-foldable-greenhouse/">Daniel <span class="blsp-spelling-error">Schipper</span> has created a greenhouse design</a> that could possibly be made out of recycled plastics and is also <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected">completely</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error">foldable</span>.</p>
<h3><span style="medium;">Plastic Bottles</span></h3>
<p>REAP, a sustainability group in the north of Scotland came up a design based on plastic fizzy drink bottles. They cut the bases out of each bottle and fitted them inside each other along a garden stake. These are then assembled onto a frame. They have put an instruction guide together, and you can <a href="http://www.reapscotland.org.uk/reports/greenhouse%20v1.pdf">get it here</a>. There is also a good <a href="http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1064923">photo of it here</a>.</p>
