Sunlight enters through the glass door, while the black inside transforms it to heat. Bake, boil or steam similar to the rate of a conventional oven without ever burning. Collapsible and only 21lbs. Ok, so maybe I'm convincing myself to get one now! How awesome for camping or the backyard!

Too bad they don't have a solar-powered Sirius radio or CD player, but another good start. Great for backyards, hiking, camping or just inquisitive kids (or adults :) Three ways to charge: sun, hank-crank, plug-in. 30 seconds of cranking = 35 minutes of Dave Matthews. The rechargable NiMH battery can hold 20 hours of playtime. AM/FM/SW/LW

For example, mine reads that we get 73% of our energy from coal (I can't help where I am. Ohio is a big coal state! How terrble). What's worse is that it compares your coal consumption to the nation's (50%). Yikes! We use 23% more coal than the national average! Ok, anyway, Gas (2%), Nuclear (23%), Hydro (1%), non-hydro renewables (0!). To boot, we exceed the national averages for carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide. Please visit this site. We need to be informed on our state of energy, especially with all the talk in election and media. Do yourself a favor and become informed!

The time to harness all that free wind energy whipping around your house is now and this little wind generator will do the trick nicely. It's the most successful residential wind generator out there and has much of the technology of the big commercial wind turbines. You'll need a tower to put this wind generator where it belongs, about thirty feet up ,and you'll need a battery system to store the energy. All this will cost you a little over a grand but you'll be one step closer to jumping off the grid and living the pure and natural life.

Clearly it's never to early to start teaching kids about sustainable energy- what cooler way than by constructing a working wind turbine? This looks like a great kit- it teaches about the environment, physics and mechanics all at once. Once the kit is assembled the turbine can be used to power an LED or recharge a rechargeable battery.

What a step in the right direction! A solar-powered air conditioner, YEAH!! It can heat or cool a 600 square foot room. It is still being tested at a McDonalds and by the U.S. Navy, so let's hope we see this out on the market ... What a step in the right direction! A solar-powered air conditioner, YEAH!! It can heat or cool a 600 square foot room. It is still being tested at a McDonalds and by the U.S. Navy, so let's hope we see this out on the market soon. The company, GreenCore Air, produces the units in the USA with environmentally-friendly materials (what this means, I'm not sure!)

Enter your address and a satellite image of your house appears. Add solar panel spots and the angle of your roof and the program calculates how much you would save monthly, on your electric bill, if solar panels were added. I couldn't get the right electric company to pop up, but I got an idea anyway. Perhaps if I signed up, it would be more accurate.

It is made of plastic though :( but what a saving of water, electricity and detergent.

Lately my husband and I are very into gadgets that do not require electricity or batteries to operate, so we've been checking out solar-powered and crank-powered items. I review another crank-powered lantern with lots of cool features in my Green Living list, but it is quite a bit more expensive. This lantern is simple, functional, and SUPER-BRIGHT, much brighter than you would expect from a wind-up. If all you need is light, and not all those other fancy features of the higher-end crank lanterns, than this is the one for you! It's great for emergencies (like power-outages, never have to worry about dead batteries again!), camping, to keep in the car for roadside emergencies, and travel. We love it! This lantern has the following features: Five super-bright LED lamps Dynamo power is ideal for emergencies, camping, picnics Sturdy ABS housing, shatter-resistant thermoplastic lens Protective aluminum roll cage Overall dimensions: 10-3/4" high x 7" diameter; Weight: 1.75 lbs.

This is a fabulous starter kit for going solar and living greener. This kit contains: Three 60W-equivalent energy-saving CF light bulbs, a 20 oz. stainless steel water bottle (color chosen at random), a solar LED flashlight, a four-pack of rechargeable batteries, a fast charger, a low-flow showerhead, a classic solar hat fan, and the acclaimed Solar Living Sourcebook with 600+ pages of wise, energy how-to advice. The benefits? This kit eliminates 10,000 lbs CO2 per year.

This is another great energy-efficient gadget to have around. It will NEVER need batteries. Great for camping (ever had your flashlight batteries die in the middle of the night?), hiking, and for car and power emergencies. All you have to do is wind it for about a minute, and you get an hour and a half of light. It's that easy! It's also lightweight and fits into a large pocket, so it won't bulk you down. Super bright and multiple brightness settings, too.

We first started looking for something like this after our last power outage (rural Michigan), which lasted two days. Cranking the handle for about a minute creates a store of energy that should last about an hour! We started thinking how savvy it is to create electricity using mere manpower. This is also the perfect solution for no-electricity situations, including camping (it's sooooo light and narrow for easy packing), traveling, and power outages. Never worry again about not having charged/full batteries when you need them. But the coolest thing about this lantern is the extra features, including compass, 15 red and white LED emergency flashing beacon,# AM/FM radio with MP3 input, 120 decibel siren, night light, high frequency, ultrasonic mosquito repeller, cell phone charger (for a Nokia cell phone, adapters are available for other model phones), and MP3 connector cord. All of this without batteries or power cord!!

This is a great idea for when you need subtle lighting outside, to show the way into the house or along a path. The solar cells collect light, and the torch has a sensor that switches the torch on as soon as it gets dark. Alternatively, there are also torches that can be switched on and off to one's liking. Why still waste precious energy when solar cells can do so much better?
