So: this past fall I decided to write a song about a heat pump. A heat pump with a whole lotta love to give. Coincidentally, around that time I happened to be talking to science writer Susan Mashiyama, who wanted to write an article about heat pumps. She decided to make the article about the song. It’s a longer story than that, of course. Fortunately Susan is really good at telling it. So here it is. The story was published a couple days ago in Berkeleyside, a Berkeley news site that’s pretty popular with the locals. |
The article mentions the non-profit The Switch Is On; I’ve been one of their electrification ambassadors ever since we replaced all our gas appliances with electric ones a few years ago. They’re a great resource for learning about home electrification, especially if you’re in California. (Another great resource, this one nationwide, is Rewiring America.)
Please enjoy some heat pump love!
