Today, host Steve will help create what will hopefully be the largest solar community in the world on an Army base in Wainae, HI. He'll work on installing metal frameworks and solar panels that stick right on to the roof.

Later, Steve will help an Austin, TX family with their indoor air quality and tour one of the greenest neighborhoods in Austin. Believe it or not, it used to be an airport! Then, Steve learns about a new kind of renewable energy in Kona, HI—water power!
