No winter in New York – plenty of winter in Switzerland

Christmas / New Year 2011/2012

For me this is the 1st winter without snow in New York. The Christmas tree in front of our house never saw one single snowflake. How sad is that! Now on February 10 we still have no snow. I know so many people love it that way but for me winter without snow is no winter.

I was down in Bridgeton, NJ trying to sell a company micro-turbines for their own electricity production. That particular company is in the vegetable business and by the way installed already 6MW of solar! Even they said that it is bad for the nature if we don’t have a real cold, icy and snow covered ground. Spinach already believes it is April or May ….

Luckily we spent some wonderful days in Switzerland. There it was real winter. Look what it looks like if we talk about real winter.
