The one thing about solar cells is that they do not look that great and often stand out like a sore thumb no matter where they placed. So wouldn’t it be great if there was a way of producing these solar cell products which actually fitted into the surroundings?
That is what the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) along with Tokki Corp and Mitsubishi Corp have been doing. They have come up with a brilliant pr

Batteries will never be needed again, especially for applications like making simple calculations, all that is needed here just to power this up is a little water poured into the back of the device.
This is an amazingly neat little device which gives everyone an idea of what is possible by using a bit of technology and lot of eco friendliness. This water powered calculator is quite safe, has a fair sized screen and basic functions.

President George Bush recently signed into law, the banning of incandescent lightbulbs.

The energy-friendly LED, Halogen, and CFL, are what they are to be replaced with. These are pricier (by a few dollars) but they also last much much longer and they will also save you moola in annual energy bills.
The incandescent lightbulbs are to be phased out over the next 10 to 12 years and no longer to be used. A tall task since Americans have

Dan Butler, a gym teacher and football coach in Florida, is driving around in a diesel truck that he converted to run on vegetable oil. Dan says, he is just an average joe who is doing his small part for the planet.
The Ford 350 truck is only refilled every few weeks and he gets his recycled vegetable oil for free from local pizza joints and other neighborhood restaurants. He has even motivated some reluctant friends who now want to also try out

In Reno, NV the first flight powered by 100% biodiesel took place two weeks ago with the Bio Jet.
The Bio Jet is the creation of Green Flight International and although it has flown in the past with a mixture of jet fuel and biodiesel, last week was the first time, that it flew with only biodiesel. The plane is a L-29 military aircraft and this is what the founders of Green Flight International had to say in response to their concept:

Conserve electricity through the use of alternative lighting products such as the fluorescent bulbs may cost more for some people but the cost is worth it compared to the tragedies the old light bulbs bring. Such has been the theme set for October, energy awareness month to which people are properly oriented and egged on to try out the new line of bulbs that can surely be more feasible and helpful to their homes and the world today.

Image a street lined with these solar trees, wouldn’t the world be a better place? Maybe no but a street with these light would be a nice place to live.
But this is more than just light or tree’s, it is a statement of beauty and art, as well as being an eco friendly way of lighting up the streets at night.
This has been a scheme that will be on display at a museum in Austria in October.

In London, England there is a process happening that is using unusual practices to combat energy IN-EFFICIENCY in homes. They are using heat mapping to locate homes that have great heat loss and making the data available for all to see.
From what i can gather the way this practice works is that an airplane with some sort of thermal imaging whatchamacallit is able to transcribe the heat of the homes. This info is then made available to t
