<p>Biodiesel was known to be made possible from plants but this is one system from Joules Biotechnologies that doesn’t produces the same algae-based fuel by redesigning organisms and their functionality. They require no farmland to grow corn or other feedstock. They genetically engineered organisms that use photosynthesis to directly create the molecules that form the basis of diesel. </p>
<p>Their SolarConverter array system suspends these organisms in a solution within a light-permeable structure that looks something like a solar panel array. When directed to sunlight, the organisms turn CO2 and the sunlight into biodiesel. Certainly a new alternative to get some fuel in this time of crisis.</p>

<p>We have seen a lot of cars come out, powered by alternative fuel but this car is practically being run by things you will see in a kitchen! Imagine a car that can be powered by chocolate, steered by carrots and a body made from potatoes. The car may as well be called the kitchen race car!</p>
<p>Such was the accomplishment of researchers over at the University of Warwick. They will be appearing on BBC’s Blue Peter show on October 13, to demo the said car. The show will be transmitted at 4.35 pm on BBC1 On Tuesday 13th October. Be sure to catch this new eco-friendly racing car right on national television.</p>

<p>New report from <em>MSNBC</em> discusses how university scientists in Ohio have devised new technology which takes urine and turns it into cheap hydrogen fuel cells.</p>
<p>Yes! urine. Everything from cars, homes to electronic devices can be powered up using this new alternative source of energy. And in as early as six months.</p>
<p>Some examples of how <strong>urine power</strong> (a/k/a pee power) could be used:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;A fuel cell, urine-powered vehicle could theoretically travel 90 miles per gallon&#8221;.</p></blockquote>

<p>With the cold season fast approaching, a lot of people are turning to alternative, if not economical means of heating their homes. There will be the usual heaters which may skyrocket you electric bills for sure. But now, thanks to technology and a new wave of eco-friendly means, Fire Crystals are slowly becoming the alternative means of providing proper home warmth for any household. </p>
<p>Dubbed &#8220;the healthiest way to heat a home&#8221; and garnering a &#8220;four out of four&#8221; rating by the Degree Of Green website, FireCrystals tempered glass replacement for burning wood or faux log fireplaces and fire pits are quickly becoming the centerpiece of green home and sustainable commercial building design. </p>
<p>Entirely environmentally friendly, the sleek, sexy and economical glass crystals eliminate smoke emissions, soot and ash debris, and are made with 100% recycled glass.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Solar power has never been more popular than it is now, and many manufacturers are bringing wildly innovative products to market.</p>
<p>Case in point? The <strong>flexible solar panel roll</strong> from Brunton. This groovy new product is essentially sized flat like a mat and flexible, just roll up and out. It&#8217;s  aimed at outdoor enthusiasts who want to power up their essentials off-grid. For example, a camper or backpacker who wants to photograph his journey or the seaman who needs juice for a GPS. There are many  uses for the solar panel roll, not just fancy outdoor excursions &#8211; including juicing up a laptop, digital camera or iPod.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-17888" title="solar roll by brunton" src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/solar-roll-by-brunton.jpg" alt="solar roll by brunton" width="500" height="500" /></p>
<p>The<em> solar panel roll</em> comes in a convenient tube which you can carry off literally anywhere. Very cool device from the good folks in <em>Wyoming</em> over at eco tech firm Brunton.</p>
<p>For information, price and full specs, visit the <strong>Brunton</strong> site.</p>

<p>The buzz this week in the <strong>electric vehicle </strong>market is the recent news that the Chevy Volt by <strong>GM</strong> will debut next year and with a very impressive 230 miles per gallon.</p>
<p>But is this true? Will the <strong>Chevy Volt</strong> really reach the claimed mileage of a whopping 230 miles per gallon?</p>
<p>Skeptics abound left and right and with good reason, as this has never officially been done. The mass market car which should debut in late 2010, around November and is expected to retail at $40,000, is a hybrid. Meaning it is powered by both a gas engine and an electric motor.</p>
<p>How it will reach the <strong>230 mpg&#8217;s</strong> is not exactly clear, but one thing is for certain &#8211; the car will make a splashy debut and rasie alot of eyebrows when it finally reaches American roads next fall.</p>

<p>Turn an old toy into something eco-friendly such as this Lego Windup Dynamo Torch which can surely come in handy once the lights go out. Expected to be a hit among Lego fanatics around, the Lego Torch doesn’t require any batteries and all you have to do is crank it up to emit needed lighting. </p>
<p>It doesn’t say how long you have to crank it, but with most flashlights like that, it doesn’t take too terribly long.  It being hand crank would make it great for a child to have in their room if the dark makes them nervous. </p>
<p>You can get one at <a target="_blank" href="http://www.play.com/Gadgets/Gadgets/4-/10772161/LEGO-Dynamo-Torch/Product.html#" >Play.com</a> for only $23.00.</p>

<p>With demand for <strong>solar chargers</strong> at an all time high, manufacturers everywhere are rushing to fill the need. Enter <strong>Kodak</strong> with an all new solar charger for various digital gadgets, such as mP3 players, the iPhone, digital cameras, ebook readers, and other devices.</p>
<p>It works similar as other solar chargers, plug your device to it and let the Sun power it up. This one also has the option of an USB outlet, in case you&#8217;re out on a rainy day &#8211; just make sure you have your laptop with you as this is how it will charge up.</p>
<p>Kodak has a few solar powered devices in the works to help people power their many digital electronics on the go, and all are<em> Energy Star</em> qualified.</p>
<p>The new <strong>solar-powered Kodak Charger</strong> will retail for $39.99 and debut Fall 2009.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><center><a target="_blank" href="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/electric-bicycle-modes-imag-thumb.jpg" ><img src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/electric-bicycle-modes-imag-thumb-287x300.jpg" alt="electric-bicycle-modes-imag-thumb" title="electric-bicycle-modes-imag-thumb" width="287" height="300" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-17408" /></a></center></p>
<p>Imagine a bike serving multiple purposes. In fact if there was a term for a bike more than just a bike, then perhaps now is the time to say it. Regardless, it seems that this is the role of this foldable bike in the London Garden concept. Other than being a transportation option, it can even be a source of power for public transport. </p>
<p>The foldable bike can be used in three modes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Normal Mode (standard bike)
</li>
<li>Exercise Mode (Storing and Generating Electricity)
</li>
<li>Scooter Mode (Makes use of the stored energy for scootering)
</li>
</ul>
<p>Under the concept, these foldable bikes are stored in tall tree-like structures that can pass for bus stops in the modern world. The bike racks themselves are meant to generate power from rainwater, sun, and even kinetically from the wind as its swooping arms sway.</p>
<p>And the thing about generating energy is when a person takes the electric-powered bus or taxi. They can double as seats and the stored energy is in turn used by the electric vehicle. </p>

<p>Lean and then let your body do the movement. If you ask me, this is a great vehicle to be healthy and generate some old style power in ages. Rather than waste power, you create power just by leaning, exercising your body and likewise getting places. </p>
<p>When the driver pulls the handlebar toward himself or herself, an electro-hydraulic servo lifts the gravity center by acting on the piston that connects the swing arm. When pulling on the handlebar is lessened, the vehicle stabilizes due to the lowering of the COG.</p>
<p>It’s a crazy idea but with people looking for alternative vehicles to use, it certainly serves the purpose to this respect. Weird but practical and logical.</p>

<p>Volvo will reportedly go full blast with its fuel cell technology drive, which if successful, will create more jobs. Swedish Energy Agency and the Volvo Group are investing SEK 200 M in Volvo’s development of fuel cells. The investment will create around 100 new positions in the Gothenburg region within the next three years.</p>
<blockquote><p>In the autumn of 2009, Powercell Sweden will need to hire around 60 people in an entirely new plant in the Gothenburg region. Per Wassén, who is Investment Director at Volvo Technology Transfer and chairman of Powercell Sweden AB, foresees that the company will create around 100 new jobs within the next three years.</p></blockquote>
<p>With the growing need for alternative energy and fuel for various means but largely for vehicles, fuel cell technology can truly be a big help towards the efforts of local motorists and car companies. A fuel cell resembles a small battery. It is charged with hydrogen gas and converts this into electricity, water and carbon dioxide through a chemical reaction.</p>
<p>The areas of use can be power supply units for households, trucks, boats, radio masts in remote locations and electric hybrid vehicles. Compared with normal diesel or gas-powered engines, fuel cells produce significantly less carbon dioxide and no emissions at all of particulates and nitrogen oxides. In addition, they are more efficient, smaller and lighter.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Summer is here and depending where you live, it might be pretty hot already. In some cities (such as mine) it&#8217;s already in the 90&#8217;s daily.</p>
<p>But how do you stay cool and not blow a bundle on <b>air conditioning</b> every month? Below I present four quick tips.</p>
<div align="center"><img style="max-width: 800px;" src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/take-a-cold-shower.jpg" /></div>
<div align="right">image via <a target="_blank" href="http://gavinhudson.greenoptions.com/files/961/Cold_Shower.jpg" >green options</a></div>
<p>1. Wear light layers and stay away from fabrics that retain heat such as polyester. Bring out the cottons. Light cotton fabrics will keep you cool and or absorb sweat away from the body.</p>
<p>2. Use fans instead of AC throughout the house, these use up less energy.</p>
<p>3. Someone in this thread suggested to <a target="_blank" href="http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=ApGYxDRhlHhcUWrF7ukQJ3AFxgt.;_ylv=3?qid=20090625124925AAtn1hN" >place plants near windows to absorb solar radiation</a>. Good tip!</p>
<p>4. My favorite would be to take a cold shower. Use the water sparingly, but this is a great way to cool down.</p>
<p>What tips do you have for staying cool without using too much AC? Share below in the comment area.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><center><a target="_blank" href="http://inhabitat.com/wp-content/uploads/horizon_2.jpg" ><img src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/horizon_2-300x266.jpg" alt="horizon_2" title="horizon_2" width="300" height="266" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-14957" /></a></center></p>
<p>Top secret or not, it is out of the bag. The first car to run on fuel cell has been revealed. The new fuel cells back the new UK car which is said to be better than most hybrid and electric cars in the market today. It can consume only 360 miles to the gallon and could be made available to consumers for just 200 pounds Sterling ($315) per month.</p>
<blockquote><p>
Developed by Riversimple, the small city car integrates a 6kW fuel cell from Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies. The vehicle maximizes energy efficiency by utilizing lightweight composite materials, eliminating heavy mechanical component, and by networking fuel cells with ultra capacitors and 60% regenerative braking energy into one symbiotic system. The result is ground-breaking: 240 miles (390 km) can be traveled on one small tank of hydrogen weighing only 2.2 lbs (1 kilogram).</p></blockquote>
<p>When  you talk about price and alternative fuel or transportation, this supposed secret car does seem enticing. With the growing rant for other forms of potential vehicle preference, this latest top secret car certainly promises a lot. Best of all, it has a ready supply of fuel cells to back it up!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><center><a target="_blank" href="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/low.jpg" ><img src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/low-300x241.jpg" alt="low" title="low" width="300" height="241" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-14397" /></a></center>  </p>
<p>You don’t have to be a electric hog to be able to enjoy the fruits of a great HDTV. Well for most of us that prefer branded ones, here is an alternative HDTV that uses its eco-friendly marketing point to carry its brand. The best thing about it is that although it is geared to being green, you will hardly notice the sacrifice in features and quality. </p>
<p>This 1080p LCD display comes with an Eco Mode that lets you control how much power it uses and the automatic light dimming uses up to 20% less than when it runs normally. In standby mode, the Loewe Art SL sucks just 0.7 watts. As you might expect, these power saving features don’t come cheap.</p>
<blockquote><p>The basic model is £2,345. It’s available in 42″ or 47″ screen sizes and each purchase comes with a Freeview tuner and a 250GB HDR.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looking for a set of <strong>solar powered speakers</strong> that are flexible, can be used at night, and are pretty cool looking?</p>
<div><img style="max-width: 800px;" src="http://www.woodysoldtowngrill.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/solar-powered-speakers.jpg" alt="" /></div>
<p>If so take a look at the new <em>solar powered speakers</em> from a company called <strong>Pekka Salokannel</strong> (not exactly easy to remember &#8211; they need a nickname) which have all of the above mentioned features and more.</p>
<p>As the Treehugger blogger mentions, the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.treehugger.com/files/2009/04/solar-powered-speakers-less-guilt-more-boogie.php" >Pekka Salokannel solar powered speakers</a> are cool because they are portable and  flexible. You can easily use  them on different gadgets including your laptop, as a tabletop speaker, or for your iPod.</p>
<p>With Summer right around the corner (or already here depending on where you live) outdoor activities are sure to increase, and if you&#8217;re like me &#8211; you love to take music with you &#8211; everywhere. The bike ride, the park, the picnic, the volleyball game, etc.</p>
<p>Leave the batteries at home, try the <strong>Pekka Salokannel solar speakers</strong> and listen to your fave tunes with speakers powered by the sun.</p>

<p>Light is something we take for granted. We don&#8217;t realize how important and omnipresent it is in our lives til it&#8217;s gone. Or until we read an article slapping us in the face with this reality.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With <b>Earth Day</b> but two days away, one way to celebrate is by <i>attending a local activity or event</i>.</p>
<div align="center"><a target="_blank" href="http://earthday.net/estore" ><img style="max-width: 800px;" src="http://www.groovyvegetarian.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/earth-day-2009-tshirt.jpg" /></a></div>
<p>How To Find Earth Day Events Near You </p>
<p>The <b>Earth Day website </b>is a<b> </b><a target="_blank" href="http://www.earthday.net" ></a><a target="_blank" href="http://earthday.net/search/location" >great resource for finding local Earth Day events and activities near you</a><b>. </b>You can search via keyword, by date or by location. When the list populates, you get access to a Google map and full event details, such as hours, activities planned, and the ability to register directly on the site.</p>
<p>NOTE: <b></b>I conducted a <a target="_blank" href="http://earthday.greenstarkville.org/" >search for an Earth Day event in my local zip code</a> and found a few events, but what would be really cool is to be able to use both the (location and date) search feature together. This way when you do a search by location only events still active and or upcoming show up.</p>
<p>Keep in mind many different organizations, clubs, schools, businesses and associations are celebrating the <b>40th Annual Earth Day</b>. So finding something interesting, smart, cool, family-friendly, or fun should not be too hard.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s hoping you find what you&#8217;re looking for, to get your green on&#8230;in 2009!</p>
<p>(the <a target="_blank" href="http://earthday.net/estore" >earth day t-shirt</a> above can be purchased online) </p>

<p>Here is a great kit for restaurant owners/managers that can somehow help them bring down the rising cost of electricity. Kilojolts Consulting Group announces the launch of the Restaurant Manager&#8217;s Energy Tool Kit, designed to help operators cut their energy usage by up to 10 percent by addressing inefficient operations. This &#8220;energy manager in a box&#8221; includes everything an operator needs to implement, promote, and measure an energy waste reduction program.</p>
<blockquote><p>Each Tool Kit includes a how-to manual, five restaurant-focused Energy Tips, branded promotional materials, and benchmarking software, and is priced affordably at $850. Since restaurants need to earn $20 in revenue to recover every $1 dollar of energy waste, Kilojolts&#8217; President Gary Markowitz observed, &#8220;That makes our high-ROI Energy Tool Kit the best business investment they&#8217;ll make this year.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>The Tool Kit&#8217;s five Energy Tips include &#8220;Turn it Off,&#8221; targeting lights and equipment; &#8220;Don&#8217;t be a Drip,&#8221; tackling water waste; and &#8220;Just-in-Time,&#8221; promoting efficient scheduling of kitchen equipment.</p>

<p>Grab a free CFL Bulb on April 19th at your local Home Depot store. To celebrate <u>Earth Day 2009</u>, the guys and gals at Home Depot are offering up to 1 million free CFL Bulbs to consumers.</p>
<p><b>CFL bulbs</b> use less energy than traditional bulbs and also last about 10x as long. These will pretty much last you a long while. Generally they tend to cost more, but since they last longer &#8211; the need to replace isn&#8217;t as great. So you could buy a new traditional bulb every two months or so at $2.00 a pop, or you can buy a CFL at $7 to $10 every 5 years or so.</p>
<p>To score the <b>Home Depot</b> freebie, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/StoreFinderView?langId=-1&#038;storeId=10051&#038;catalogId=10053" >go to the website and find your local shop</a>, then call to see if they are participating. The free CFL offer is good on April 19th.</p>
<p>Oh! and the video above is a cute ditty on the luminescence of a CFL. It&#8217;s short at only 39 seconds, so take a quick peek at it.</p>

<p>There are a lot of simple things you can do to go green for Earth Day. Every little bit counts.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-13914" title="conserve-water" src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/conserve-water-300x300.gif" alt="conserve-water" width="300" height="300" /></p>
<p>1) Stop using plastic bags at stores &#8211; use tote bags instead. Many stores including Wal-Mart are offering totes instead of plastic bags. Get a few tote bags and use them for your shopping. You can use them over and over again and that’s less plastic bags filling our trash.</p>
<p>2) Decrease your water usage &#8211; brush your teeth with the water off and don’t take long showers. Just shower long enough to get clean, and then get out.</p>
<p>3) Always use energy saving light bulbs &#8211; when you&#8217;re current bulbs go out, replace old light bulbs with energy saving bulbs. The new crop of CFL&#8217;s use less energy and last longer. Way longer.</p>
<p>4) Use rechargeable batteries instead of using disposable batteries. With rechargeable batteries, you just recharge and reuse the same batteries over and over again.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">The port of Los Angeles is having a green moment with the installation of solar panels covering an area of seventy one and half square feet, which is possibly a world record on its own. However, this is more than just solar or world records the port authorities are setting a magnificent example that other organisations should be taking note of.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">The building to be covered will be the World Cruise Centre and the work is expected to be completed by the end of the year at an estimated cost of $9 million and will generate around one MW of power. Nevertheless, this is first stage as an additional installation of 1.16 million square feet is planned that will be completed over the next years or so.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Here in the UK, pollution from vehicles, especially large vehicles, is a constant problem. The UK’s roads and buildings are crumbling under the stress of the weight and pollution. The attempts by the government and local councils to reduce pollution are simply not working because public transport is not up to the job either.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13751" title="solo-ev1_vkoax_69" src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/solo-ev1_vkoax_69.jpg" alt="solo-ev1_vkoax_69" width="550" height="366" /></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Fortunately, there are alternatives being brought out, like this new style bus from Optare. They have produced an electric vehicle that is totally green and produces zero emissions. The Solo EV could be the answer for public transport. But there are millions of buses on the UK’s roads and these buses take eight hours to charge up and then there is the cost to consider, so is this really an eco friendly alternative?</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13700" title="3394248538_077ee96596_o" src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/3394248538_077ee96596_o.jpg" alt="3394248538_077ee96596_o" width="537" height="347" />Obviously, with Earth Hour happening around the world at ironically different times, it would be a day or so before the full story would be known. In fact, as expected, Earth Hour was a success in many cases and it has been refreshing to see iconic landmarks and government buildings from around the globe taking part in the one hour switch off.</p>
<p>The date was the 28th March and at 8.30 pm in whatever time zone people lived in, the switch off happened. Starting in the Chatham Islands located in the south Pacific Ocean the lights began to go dark this trend continued around the world to include almost four thousand cities in eighty eight countries in twenty five different time zones, was it a success? You Bet!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">There is only one solar powered plane that is capable of carrying a person, it is the Sunseeker II, and it will be setting off on a European tour following the e-flight expo, which takes place on the 5<sup>th</sup> April. This is the second version of the craft that made twenty one flights and spent a hundred and twenty one hours in the air during 1990.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">The Sunseeker II is designed by Eric Raymond; it uses battery power to get into the air, while solar power takes over during the flight for the controls and other operations. The plane will be flying over the following countries: Italy, France, Spain, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Hungary and Slovenia.</span></p>

<p>Have you heard of <em>The Giving Tree Band</em>? A small but powerful Chicago bluegrass, rock, and eco-billy band that has as much passion for their music as they do for the planet.</p>
<p>The guys behind <strong>The Giving Tree Band</strong> are rocking out small concert stages and nationwide festivals with their unique blend of indie music and sustainability.</p>
<p>Their most recent music collaboration is <em>Great Possessions</em>, an album which was recorded in the Aldo Leopold Legacy Center in Wisconson, a LEED certified green building. <strong>This is the first album manufactured under wind power and in a LEED certified property.</strong> Pretty cool.</p>
<p>The guys from the band even drove their bikes 11 miles everyday to the center from their camping grounds site.Yes they camped out for a month while recording this album, as the Aldo center doesn&#8217;t have live-in quarters.</p>
<p>They also <strong>plan to offset the shipping</strong> of their music CD&#8217;s with a carbon offset program and even cooler than all of the above, is the fact that they use <strong>guitars and other instruments made from reclaimed wood</strong>. Some are donated by a retailer that specializes in recycled wood guitars.</p>
<p>The <a target="_blank" href="http://www.thegivingtreeband.com" >Giving Tree Band</a> is a rock band with a dual mission, to rock out with awesome music and to do it sustainably.</p>
<p>Look for <strong>Great Possessions, </strong>their third album, to come out this Spring.</p>
<p><em>RECAP:</em></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #339966;">How to Green Your Band</span></strong></p>
<p>1. In the manufacturing process</p>
<p>2. In the packaging process (recycled content)</p>
<p>3. Offsetting shipping or offering digital only goods</p>
<p>4. Using musical instruments made from sustainable materials</p>
<p>5. Partnering with or sponsoring charities that align with your green and eco friendly values</p>
<p>6. Producing great music (and a mission) your fans will love</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">The heliostat system is a fringe market in the solar power industry. Instead of using expensive solar panels, this system uses computer controlled mirrors that track the sun and direct the suns light right into the windows of the building. It can produce around 600 watts of heat and provide enough power to light forty hundred watt light bulbs.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">This is an energy that is in its early stages, for some people directing sun light through the windows of a home could be a nightmare; just imagine the brightness of the light all day long. Clearly, it needs some work but the general idea is cool, or hot depending on your point of view. In the future you could just  imagine huge purpose built buildings surrounded by fields of mirrors providing heat and power to the surrounding area.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">By quickly glancing at the map provided by the city, the location of the charging stations can easily be found; there is even a version that can be downloaded in PDF form making it easier for the user to find their nearest charging point. Of course, what the map does not tell you if that whether or not the charging station is being used.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">It has been a dream for a long time to harness the power of the waves to produce energy.  This concept  looked as if it could be introduced on a larger scale as testing was going  very well for the Agucadoura Project off the coast of Portugal. The project was supposed to produce around 2.5 Mw of power for the $9 million investment.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Yet, despite the investment and the apparent success, the project has been cancelled. What would have become the world largest and most successful wave power plant has now come to an end. The original plan was to build twenty five of these generators, but the equipment has not lived up to expectations with leaks that affected buoyancy and the recession taking its toll on the finances, the project simply run out of cash.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Normally it would impossible to use the words eco and Porsche in the same sentence, but these are changing times and luckily even car manufacturers are having to change their ways to produce greener cars. This applies to the top end of the market too. The Audi 3.0 litre engine will run on gas and come with the addition of a hybrid battery pack weighing around 160 pound to provide electrical power.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Timeline to a road test:</span></p>
<blockquote>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">2010 Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid Release Date: Sources expect a roll out in calendar 2010, with sales starting immediately or soon afterward.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">2010 Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid First Test Drive: Previews should be on the media docket for the first or second quarter of 2010.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">2010 Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid Prices: One recent report projects a $44,000 base price, about the same as a 2009 V6 Cayenne. However, it will probably be more like $48,000-$50,000.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Most fast food restaurants use huge amounts of vegetable oil. While some of these  restaurants sell their used oil to people who make their own bio diesel, in actuality it is only a small amount. However, there could be a solution that not only disposes of the used oil; it will also provide around a quarter of the power needed to keep the restaurant going. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">VegaWatt is a machine that turns used cooking oil into clean energy and eliminates the need to dispose of the used cooking oil. The machine is about the size of the fridge and uses a filter system; there are no chemicals or fossil fuels used in the process making it a cheap and clean source of energy.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just read <a target="_blank" href="http://www.entrepreneur.com/startingabusiness/goinggreen/article200500.html?cam=Twitter&amp;cid=%20The%20$80%20Billion%20Opportunity&amp;size=031209" >this article</a> which talks about the <strong>stimulus package</strong> and how it will revolutionize solar energy application, innovation and growth.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a target="_blank" href="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/solar-energy-revolution-is-coming.jpg" ><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13268" title="solar-energy-revolution-is-coming" src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/solar-energy-revolution-is-coming.jpg" alt="" width="329" height="326" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p>The article mentions that <strong>$80 billion dollars is earmarked for solar energy projects</strong>, including 6 billion for loan guarantees and a few billion more for other renewable energy ideas.</p>
<p>In 2009 and 2010 solar energy usage is going to explode and the best part is all the <strong>jobs</strong> that are going to be created. Not too mention the <strong>savings</strong> to be gained by homeowners, green builders, solar tech companies, investors and renewable energy service businesses. Don&#8217;t forget about the <strong>investment opportunities</strong> that will come out of this as well. Green tech investing is super hot.</p>
<p>I believe that we are going to see <strong>major innovation</strong> in the coming year (and next) of all sorts related to solar implementation. From cool solar gadgets to better faster and <a target="_blank" href="http://keetsa.com/blog/science-and-technology/solar-power/easy-to-install-solar-panels/" >easier solar installs</a>. People who have wanted to try solar energy in their homes, cars, work, etc will now be able to buy and or install it with the help of grants, loans and other government aid.</p>
<p>The <strong>big drivers of change are going to be small companies</strong> who receive the federal and or state aid, as these small businesses are the ones who are going to create affordable consumer solar power devices and services.</p>
<p>The solar energy revolution has begun. Are you ready?</p>

Once printed these solar cells can be cut or shaped to fit onto almost any surface.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">There may be a global financial crisis going on at the moment, but for some people that means very little, they are fine at the moment and they are going to flaunt it. For many followers of eco friendly design the Segway was one of those machines that should have made it as transportation of the 21<sup>st</sup> Century but has become the material for many jokes.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">It is easy to see why, when the likes of designer and perfume house Chanel put their name on the Segway. There is already an estimate on price of over $10,000, but the Chanel Segway comes with extra Chanel accessories, like the bag.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You found this article because you either want to buy a <strong>green laptop</strong> or you want to make the laptop you currently own more greener.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a target="_blank" href="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/green-laptop.jpg" ><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12726" title="green-laptop" src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/green-laptop.jpg" alt="" width="319" height="208" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p>We will look at both and lucky for you there is plenty that can be done to green up a laptop, any laptop.</p>
<p><strong>How-to green a new laptop (questions to ask)<br />
</strong></p>
<p>1. <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Manufacturer ethics?</span></strong> &#8211; Check the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.greenpeace.org" >Greenpeace rating of the brand or manufacturer</a> you plan on purchasing from. See how the company fares on the list of sustainability, as this may make or break your decision to go and support them.</p>
<p>2. <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>What type of display?</strong></span> &#8211; Look into the <strong>type of display</strong> the proposed laptop has, currently LCD is good, LED is better and the planned OLED is most energy efficient.</p>
<p>3. <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>What type of casing? (and components) &#8211; </strong></span>Laptop casings now come in a variety of formats, including bamboo, recycled materials, and planned for the future are corn-based cases. Look at the inside components also and see how they are assembled? New models have it set up so that the laptop is easily upgradeable. Instead of throwing out a laptop because it has exceeded memory capacity, you can upgrade with a simple click or module change. This will extend its life and keep it out of the landfill.</p>
<p><strong>How-to green an existing laptop</strong></p>
<p>1. <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Adjust settings</strong></span> &#8211; There are two important settings you can adjust to save energy on your laptop. The power setting and the screensaver setting. Go to control panel and set these to the lowest setting you can reasonably afford to go with. This will also help out with saving some battery power.</p>
<p>2. <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Go off grid</strong></span> &#8211; I found a fantastic article that covers <a target="_blank" href="http://greenwebhostingcoupons.com/2009/10-easy-ways-to-run-your-laptop-without-electricity/" >10 easy ways to run your laptop without electricity</a>.</p>
<p>3. <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Have End of Life Plan</strong></span> &#8211; When your laptop finally reaches its end of life, have a disposal plan of action ready. If you own a Dell, Compaq, Mac (or any other brand) of laptop you&#8217;re in luck, because you can send your busted laptop to any of these manufacturers and they will responsibly dispose of it for you. Just call the 800 # or visit the website of your brand.</p>
<p>4. <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Accessories</strong></span> &#8211; You can also green up your accessories. Visit our archives as we have covered everything from recycled laptop cases, solar chargers, energy saving devices, power monitoring apps, to power strips.</p>
<p>You don&#8217;t need to spend big money to have an environmentally friendly laptop set up, just try the easy tips above. If you want to share your personal <strong>green laptop</strong> tips with us, share them below.</p>

Simply using solar power to charge up and just a twist of the top to turn it on, this simple application could have many uses.</span></p>

It has to be said that the idea is good, but as for applications, we shall have to wait and see.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">But what they will be offering in the future for the drivers who stop over is charging post for electrically powered vehicles, although it is not as easy as that sounds. This is because their provider Elforsk has to work out a way to make the charging process shorter otherwise the car park is likely to fill up with cars charging up and no room for anyone else. Currently there are only a few hundred electric vehicles in Sweden, but by 2020, the government would like to this figure reach 600,000.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">These great looking lights look a bit like a hatching bird but only its legs have come out of the shell and somehow the chick has managed to stand. However, in reality things like that do not happen, or do they? These solar powered lamps are quite cute looking and would make a great addition to apartment living.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">The lamps are the brain child of Berlin based designer, Michael Hilgers who has added a great touch by making the legs and feet orange to give them a real chick look. They come in two varieties, the solar powered version and the less technical tea light powered version.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">Obviously, the solar charger only operates when the bike is parked, but it saves the long term problem of having to find somewhere to plug the bike into a power point. However, at the same time, in order for the solar charger to work the bike is going to have to be left outside. What a dilemma!</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">According to an independent assessment of the product it was found that the panels is as much as 131% more efficient in the morning and evening, while at midday they are up to 76% more efficient. This product has been six years in development and once installed can reduce the hot water costs by up to 70%</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">The Organik Motion bike is based on a Z frame, but the bike offers more than that with every feature being thought of, such as the brakes using a level system, reflectors and tail light built into the frame itself.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">This has put pressure on the industry too as lack of sales means poor revenues, this has meant that companies who produce these products are suffering, in fact the industry as whole are predicting a decline of between thirty and fifty per cent. If this continues then firms could up closing down meaning job losses and the loss of reasonably priced eco friendly power generating equipment.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m not sure why there wasn&#8217;t much press on the fact that the <b>Superbowl </b>made an attempt to be <b>green</b> this year.</p>
<div align="center"><img style="max-width: 800px;" src="http://keetsa.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/superbowl-stadium.jpeg" /></div>
<p>As the <i>New York Times</i> reports, this year the <a target="_blank" href="http://greeninc.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/02/01/efficiency-and-recycling-at-the-super-bowl/" >Superbowl initiated several eco-friendly changes to game day</a>. </p>
<p>Some of the changes included:
<ul>
<li>a composting program</li>
<li>the use of biodegradable plates forks straws and napkins</li>
<li>new LED lighting displays</li>
<li>the recycling of cooking grease.</li>
</ul>
<p>Surely these subtle changes and or additions don&#8217;t put the Superbowl on any &#8220;Top 10 Eco friendly Event&#8221; list, but just the fact that they are being cognizant of how HUGE this event is in terms of <b>energy usage and resources</b>, means they are headed in a solid direction. </p>
<p>And every bit helps.</p>
