JMU Aff - Passive Solar

We’re the richest country in history yet do nothing while families are forced to choose between necessitates like heat and food
Greenleaf 94 (Eliot Maxwell, masters of science student at San Jose State University, “Sudden Street Site: the economic benefits of passive solar heating for a new, low-income housing,” masters thesis, 1994, http://scholarworks.sjsu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1754andcontext=etd_theses) KJS
In conventional housing, AND storing the warmth of the sun.

Energy companies shape energy policy to serve their own interests. The result is technocracy and dependence on industrial energy

The case for this is especially AND groups have an interest in vulnerabilities of these systems, namely those vulnerabilities that are linked to the population's dependence on centralized provision of energy.
This combination of technocracy and dependence constitutes a structural despotism that destroys value to life. Our scholarship ought focus on restoring balance between tools and individuals rather than increasing industrial energy production.
Professor Illich - 75 (PhD at the University of Salzburg (an exploration of the nature of historical knowledge), frmr Visiting Professor of Philosophy and of Science, Technology, and Society at Penn State, also taught at the University of Bremen, Tools for Conviviality)
I have identified five realms in each of which the efficiency of tools can upset the balance of life. Faulty technology can render the environment uninhabitable. Radical monopoly can force the demand for affluence to the point of paralyzing the ability to work. Overprogramming can transform the world into a AND thereby maximizing liberty for all. 60

Finally, the impacts are linear. Each additional unit of industrial energy degrades and deprives
Professor Illich - 73 (PhD at the University of Salzburg (an exploration of the nature of historical knowledge), frmr Visiting Professor of Philosophy and of Science, Technology, and Society at Penn State, also taught at the University of Bremen, Energy and Equity)
In previous discussions, AND deprive, and frustrate most people.

Contention 2: Here Comes the Sun

Federally assisted housing has demonstrated passive solar radically reduces dependence on industrial electricity and that strategic partnerships maximize resources for low income communities
USDA 11 (United States Departmnet of Agriculture News Release, ENERGY-SAVING HOME PROMPTS INCREASED INTEREST IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT’S HOUSING PROGRAMS,” June 23, 2011, http://www.rurdev.usda.gov/STELPRD4010826.html)
Agriculture Under AND administration is emphasizing to maximize federal resources for rural communities.

Clear standards are critical to the success of passive solar. There are multiple standards in the status quo.

I have a vision for AND programs as regulations (and lack of consistency) make management and ownership a hardship.

Reducing the regulations would benefit low income communities and raise overall standards

Reducing restrictions on passive solar would benefit communities by reducing dependence, improving health, and raising overall standards

Reducing regulations eliminates developmental hurdles to passive solar development

After their holiday recess AND making development more affordable.

Empirically, passive solar has a significant impact on reducing the industrial energy dependence of low income communities
Valenzuela 7 (Brian, master of science student in department of civil engineering at The University of Texas at El Paso, “ASSESSMENT OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN A PASSIVE SOLAR HOUSING DEVELOPMENT,” masters thesis, December 2007, http://proquest.umi.com/pqdlink?did=1445046311andFmt=14andVType=PQDandVInst=PRODandRQT=309andVName=PQDandTS=1346608437andclientId=79356andcfc=1) KJS
Conventional housing design AND conventional housing is estimated to be 10-13 years.

Passive solar significantly decreases energy dependency and alienation within the economic constraints of subsidized housing budgets

Massachusetts Institute of Technology. “Passive solar in the City,” thesis for Master of Architecture at MIT, June 1981, accessed 9/14/12) KJS
Until now, passive solar energy has AND . This is the ideology embraced by passive solar architecture.

Thus the plan: The United States Federal Government should substantially reduce restrictions on passive solar construction in federally assisted housing.

Contention 3: Survival in Justice

Renounce the worldview of “security for the fittest while the weakest die off”. It blinds us to the solutions that could build a just and equitable world. Our advocacy for ideal government creates the possibility of a more equitable society by reclaiming autonomy and value to life

Given the crises of ecology AND , it might just be enough to bring us real hope.

Case deconstructs dependency and technocracy from the inside to create openings for liberatory praxis

For this reason, AND r transformative and liberatory praxis.

Our politics of design is essential to survival in justice.
