Just when you thought that dance music, djs and club culture was the lowest ring on the social totem pole- we go green. Yes Mom, djing and taking ecstacy 4 nights a week CAN be socially responsible!

Imagine the conversations that might surround this remarkable development reported by engadget.

Boss: What have you done for the environment lately Jerry?
Employee: Well last night I got my freak on with these fine girls from Liverpool

Club Owner: Maan, these electric bills are killing me. Got a good track?
DJ: Let’s just spin “Jump Around” (House of Pain) all night!
Club Owner: Sweeeet! Just mix, blend, and scratch it so they can’t tell.
DJ: Done deal!

    Temple Nightclub in San Francisco – http://www.templesf.com – has started to implement this technology. The club's owner, Paul Hemming, has challenged himself to create the "greenest" nightclub in the world. That includes the piezoelectric dancefloor, retrofitted energy-efficient LED lights, vertical gardens, kitchen grease used for biodiesel, integrated solar panels, "urban wind mills," and serving local, organic food. I think it's a cause worth supporting if you're in the area, or a cause worth spreading in your own. Cheers.
