I just read in Electro-Generator Weekly that a British company is experimenting with a new form of renewable energy. What they have is huge circular tanks – like donuts – containing thousands of electric eels. The eels can only swim in one direction. Around the tanks are massive coils of copper wire. The EMF from the eels induces current to flow and thus generates power. One tank can generator enough for 5000 households.
I know we need to have renewable energy but don’t you think this is a cruel to the eels?

I challenge everyone to look at their food labels, look up any "chemical" ingredient, and tell me what effect it has on the human body. I already know, but I want to see how many of you will take the time to know what goes into your bodies. Your searches WILL shock you.(check your shampoos and soaps too!) Tell me what you have learned, and maybe you can tell me something I haven't learned yet!!!

I actually saw these in an organic grocery store. You use them, wash them, then use them again. Thoughts?

I just need to get some trash cans for it - the city only provides you with a 5 gallon bucket, which is all I ever see on the streets on recycle day.

What I mean is, can I recycle the box from a pizza, ketchup bottles, all that miscellaneous stuff that I grew up throwing in the trash.

Oh, my city is Phildelphia, PA - if that means anything.

I mean if I send 2.00 a month on light blubs times 12 times a year times 5 years equals 120.00 - 30.00 I will spend to buy enough blubs for my home. Then I save 90.00 over five years. I like that but do they last five years?

I try as hard as I can to turn my house green! I am only a teenager but I am trying to get my family into it. I recycle weekly and try to buy things that are good for the environment like paper instead of plastic, and if I do buy plastic I make sure it gets into the recycle bin. I have convinced my parents that as soon as we can trade in our car we are getting a new green one! YAY! We also buy cat litter that is internment safe we have a lot of cats!
What have you done to turn your house green? How hard do you try?
And any tips on how to preserve the earth a little longer!?

It's a well known fact that properties with double glazing reduce cold weather energy usage by a factor of as high as 40%.
When I lobbied my Social Housing Association to replace our old single glazed sash windows with secure, sympathetic, energy efficient double glazed units I was informed that it would spoil the image of the town!!!?
A closer inspection of the towns windows showed me that of the properties that I viewed only 3 were in fact double glazed the rest some 400 were all single glazed properties with sash windows most needing urgent repair.
It does not take a mathematician to see just how much energy could be saved if some 2000(min) windows were replaced with double glazing units, multiply this nationally and we could probably fulfil our Kyoto agreement 'quota' in a matter of a few years not decades.
