Happy Earth Day!
Happy Earth Day!
Today is the 38th annual celebration of the planet we call home, and a day to step back and think about things we can do to preserve and restore our natural resources…
So that’s the official line on Earth Day, but I want to know: what do YOU think about Earth Day?
Is it a time to reflect on accomplishments?
A time to call for more action?
Or something in-between?
Send a post, let us know, then go outside and do something good for the planet.

More fun ways to get to work
On the heels of yesterday’s post about the Tesla Roadster, here’s a take on electric transportation that’s a little further off the beaten path, but kind of neat.
I found an article in Canadian magazine Motorcycle Mojo about the Uno. Think electric sport bike with its two wheels side-by-side (Segway, anyone?)
Read the Mojo story for the kicker - the thing was designed and built by an 18-year-old.
Whether the Uno really works or not, it’s encouraging to see something like this come not from a big company, but from an inspired tinkerer’s garage.
I wonder if the fix (or fixes) to our gas-hungry transportation dilemma will come from a similar source?
I suspect some of you, dear readers, keep your eyes out for other electric concept cars, clean transportation technology and the like. What have you seen that piques your interest? Let me know, and I’ll look into it.
