I'm an inventor, poet, permaculture / sustainability nerd, and activist. I work in the renewable energy industry with biomass gasification. I love to show people neat tricks to optimize things, and I want the knowledge I share to make the world a better place. I'm also interested in cooking and gardening, and strange instruments. (About my name: the rune Berkana signifies rebirth and new beginnings. I found my rebirth and new beginning in Jesus Christ my redeemer.)
