As a designer, I love infographs and infographic videos. As an environmental nut, I love videos on the topic. This video created by GOOD magazine is definitely no exception. The information is great and the video is entertaining. Check it out.
Apparently my Green Mountain Coffee post ruffled a few more feathers than I had realized. Just after I posted about the response from Heather, Michael Dupee commented on the original post with some words of his own. He is the VP of Corporate Social Responsibility and instead of paraphrasing what he said I’ll let him […]
Yesterday I posted a short rant on Green Mountain Coffee’s seeming lack of respect for the environment with their K-Cup systems. In a response in the comments, a reader assured me that Green Mountain was making an effort to change. In a exercise in speed and good PR, Heather Davis added a company wide memo […]

We’re big fans of Free Range Studios, and this video is no exception. With a clever animation, they take through the process of bringing you that meat that sits upon your burger and shows you facts about that process. It was made to promote the movie Fast Food Nation, which you should all […]
I just saw an ad for Green Mountain Coffee on a fellow green blog (I won’t name names, this has nothing to do with them).

On a quick skim, it seems like a combination of US and Martha Stewart’s Living with green and organic living tips sewn in. The articles aren’t incredibly in-depth, nor tackle huge environmental issues, but they seem […]
Sarcastic look at coal energy.
Hello and greetings from Maine once again! It is a cool 70 degrees this evening as I type away at my laptop, by which some miracle is picking up a wireless connection from my bedroom. Imagine that…I didn’t have to try to sneak to the library during working hours (the only time it’s […]
As a car-nut and an eco-freak, what’s a guy to do? Petroleum burning internal combustion engines plus speed and power don’t equal green driving, but Lotus has been working on greener fuels and more efficient cars including the Tri-Fuel Exige 270E which can run on ethanol, gasoline, or methanol. Besides that, their cars are also […]
Philippe Starck of the Alessi Citrus Juicer fame recently said he was going to leave the design world because he felt like the products he made were useless and wasteful. He was right in a way, his designs though beautiful, weren’t always the most functional.
It seems he’s figured out a much more constructive solution, […]
