Written by Bentley
04/03/2008
I’ve written about algae biofuel a number of times before (see links at the end) and it is definitely a topic that really interests me. I’ll be honest, the idea of growing crops - that could be used for something else - on prime agricultural land for the purpose of making fuel just seems a [...] Read more...

What is Earth hour you might ask? Earth Hour is a movement that started back in 2007 on March 31 2007. It started with a question, “How can we inspire people to take action on climate change?” The answer: Ask the people of Sydney to turn off their lights for one hour. 2.2 million [...] Read more...

We received an email from Marque Cornblatt the other day encouraging us to check out his website, Gomi Style. I decided to pop over for a look and it seemed quite interesting (and fun) so I made sure to earmark it for further investigation. Cornblatt himself seems to be a colourful (literally - check out [...] Read more...

Green Works Update

Written by Bentley
01/21/2008
Last week I wrote about the new line of green cleaning products launched by Chlorox on January 14th. As per usual, I took a pretty happy-go-lucky approach with the post, pleading ignorance when it came to comparing the eco-friendliness of Green Works with some of the other established green cleaning products out there. Thankfully, Siel [...] Read more...

When we first received an email from Chad Pescod, owner of Enviroresponsible Inc, I was a tad skeptical to be totally honest. We get a lot of e-mails requesting links or suggesting we write an article about this and that (and the other thing), so I figured his email was no different. My skepticism probably tripled [...] Read more...

Google’s Green Gameplan

Written by Bentley
01/18/2008
I just caught a post on the AIDG blog (from yesterday) re: Google.org’s recently released philanthropic plans for the next 5-10 years. People love to slam Google more and more as they (big “G”) continue to spread their influence FAR beyond the cool search engine that started it all. In a sense I can understand [...] Read more...

Chlorox Green Cleaning Products

Written by Bentley

This past Monday (January 14th), Chlorox released its ‘Green Works’ line of green cleaning products. I’ve been pretty impressed with the new green products that seem to be appearing everywhere these days, and this is yet another example of green going mainstream. I guess the major question is whether or not these products are truly [...] Read more...

The most recent edition of the Springwise e-newsletter just arrived in my e-mail inbox, and as per usual I gave it a quick glance to see if there were any interesting ‘eco & sustainability’ entries. Also as per usual, they did not disappoint. The article that caught my attention this week is entitled: “Sustainable Living, Miniaturized“, [...] Read more...
