In honor of the apparent global warming we're experiencing, I bring you jewelry that makes a difference.  Now you can save the planet with a fierce statement ring.

solar statement piece

I love how unnecessary this solar powered necklace is.  If I were inclined to wear jewelry that lights up, I'd go for it.  It would be cool if you could plug it in to other things to power them as you go about your day.

Scrappy

These recycled mold chairs keep green chic.

Rainbows Save the World

I think if we started proposing more wind turbines like these we'd have more success.

Save the earth!

If everyone got one of these washUP washing machine/toilets, the polar bears could frolic on their ice caps happily ever after. The washing machine's waste water is used to flush the toilet.

Run free polar bears; happy earth day!

The Frog Was Wrong

Sometimes it is easy to be green. On a trip to Material Connexion I got to paruse the latest in green materials. Here's some favorites.

Bio Glass

Fused glass surfaces that utilize 100% post consumer recycled material. The slabs are fully vitrified, creating a translucent effect, with a fully dense top surface to resist staining.

Bottlestone

The glass waste we use is direct from post-consumer (glass bottles), and is generated in Northern California and requires no further processing before its use in BottleStone.

Lama Concept
Bamboo

Laminar wool felt sheet typically used for carpeting. Strips of felted wool are adhered together using a polyester woven backing to create a flexible sheet.

Dots & Stripes

I'm considering incorporating a green wall into my Make It Right Project housing for New Orleans.
