“BOSTON — Al Gore isn't going to save the world from climate change...But the world doesn't need Gore, or any other global warming "guru." That's because it already has Khaled Al Sabawi in Ramallah, who's heating and cooling homes in the West Bank with geothermal energy”. - Global Post

“Copenhagen’s negotiations went up in smoke, and too many governments are seduced by the comforts of oil. Since we can’t trust the good ol’ boys to do what’s right, we look instead to a new generation of industrious citizens with the pluck to go it alone. Khaled Al Sabawi is one them. The son of a Palestinian refugee, the young engineer has taken the Palestinian territories and now Jordan by storm with a simple but ingenious geothermal cooling and heating technology.” - Green Prophet
