At the rate people are saving up today, this 24 Karat Gold bike is sure to be of no interest to most people these days. But the fact remains that there is an eco-friendly tag attached to it, making it marketable and perhaps attractive in the eyes of millionaires and personalities that may just buy it for their personal collection and of course bragging rights.
But how can an expensive gold bike become eco-friendly? Well mostly on the parts as t

An idea such as this could only have been thought up by somebody who runs a skateboarding school and who can blame them. However, you cannot deny that these stairs have some serious style to add the decor of the building.
Made from recycled skateboards which have been sanded down to remove the varnish and paint, the stairs look at first be a standard set of stairs, it is only as you look closer the shape gives away the true nature of each steps

People who have cats like to make sure that they have somewhere safe and cosy to sleep, sometimes this could mean buying something that has been made from plastic. But now there are more eco friendly ideas for the cat to have a nap in.
This cat basket has been made from banana leaves, which have been woven into a basket that comes in two parts, the base and the actual basket itself. There is no doubt that any cat would love to sleep in there, wh

The PS2 by Sony is probably still going strong in some households, but there are those that are good for nothing or so we thought.
Recycling has become the in thing when it comes to designing, and the eco friendly chair by Pli Design is just that as it has been made from old PS2’s.

Don’t be surprised if the next time you buy a laptop that it may come in an eco-friendly messenger bag and not the usual cardboard boxes we have been used to. Companies such as Hewlett Packard are now doing this practice of using eco-friendly packaging in selling their laptops, contributing towards green awareness as far as reducing their cardboard needs and offering better eco-friendly bags.
With this new way of packaging, do not be surprise

The UK based sports car maker has always been at the forefront of technology, but this eco friendly concept car is really something else, reaching speeds of up to 135 Kmph as it skimmed across the icy plains of Antarctica.
The machine was running on E85 bio ethanol fuel, which when used in conventional powered cars could reduce emissions by around seventy per cent.

Apparently, you can book another eco-friendly alternative thanks to FabiKins. FabiKins offers bamboo-based eco-friendly napkins that are sure to help preach the environmen

We have seen the shift towards biodegradable items but apparently this is not enough. There is a new idea introduced in the market by BigBelly Solar and it has something to do with compacting trash using solar power.
The problem here is perhaps will people buy it? It seems too futuristic and while the intent is cl

Vice president nominee (on the Republican side) Sarah Palin, is apparently a big time hunter and NRA supporter. She was quoted recently as saying, that she usually has loads of wild game in her freezer, from hunting in her hometown of Alaska.
She also believes in the right to bear arms, and is a big supporter of 2nd amendment rights. There is a sworm of controversy that surrounds Sarah Palin, and this is but another ratchet in the proverbial too

Asus has decided to go green and launch a series of Bamboo laptops.
The Asus bamboo laptop will feature two models, with each one being pretty slim and light. One model will come in at 3 lbs, and the other at 2 lbs.
Bamboo being a renewable resource and a very strong material, makes it ideal for laptop coverings. Many pc and laptop manufacturers have created laptops and computers from Bamboo.
