thinkgreen Tote Bag
1 recommendation
"Whenever I think about that island of plastic grocery bags the size of Texas that's out there in the Pacific it makes me ill. We all need to change our habits and start taking our re-usable canvas totes with us to the market. Okay, I'll get off my soapbox now... Anyway, this cool tote has a beautiful depiction of a tree combined with some seriously funky type and will show your support for the pl..."

Sunlawn LMM-40 Push Reel Mower, Similar to Brill Luxus
1 recommendation
"For smaller yards, it is much easier to pull this bad boy out than worry about gas and oil and starting and noise. Just seems ridiculous NOT to use it. (Over an acre, look into an electric) Also, I will take this time to remind people to LEAVE THE GRASS CLIPPINGS ON THE LAWN! As long as the grass isn't so high that it's leaving huge clumps, those clippings are better for your grass (nitrogen=g..."

Intermatic WH21 Electric Water Heater Timer
1 recommendation
"It gets great reviews on easy installation and savings of approx. 33% on electric bill. Many users say they have the water heater set to be on for only 4 hours a day (around peak usage) instead of 24! Sometimes I wonder why logic has to be bought! Looks like these are easy to find around Amazon and maybe your local store."
Green Home - Glass Straws
2 recommendations
"How totally cool (like, really!) I love my iced tea, so I follow my dentist's advice in drinking those staining liquids through a straw so the front of my teeth don't suffer the consequences....AND......believe it or not........straws have been a major issue with the waste and the way I reuse the same ones at home. Not sure anything qualifies as functional art as much as this! Some may not ..."

2 recommendations
"Cool style! You know that advice your dentist gives you about drinking dark, staining liquids through a straw so that less staining occurs to the front of your teeth? Well, I've been following that advice via my iced tea addiction and one thing has been bothering me...the straw! I reuse the same few over and over at home, but believe it or not.............these make total sense to me! My n..."

No More Gas Lithium Battery Powered car
1 recommendation
"With a name like "No More Gas" I think you get the picture. The last thing I expected though was to find out they are right here in Ohio! What a surprise. This is an all-electric, lithium battery-powered one-person car. It can go 70+ mph on the highway. Very curious this thing is. Since I do not know about cars, I don't understand the statement that it it gets "45 mile range between charg..."

WWF - Gift Center
3 recommendations
"Great idea for an animal lover. Ok, who isn't? Wouldn't we all love a bucket of frogs as a representation of our adoption of the threatened amphibian? They have been dwindling in numbers - even the ones in our backyard, so they need all the help they can get. Choose from 91 animals (penguins, bats and bonobos, oh my)."
Earthopoly
1 recommendation
"Is there anything more earth-friendly? What a great alternative to the typical lets-get-as-much-as-we-can-and crush-our-competition game. Become caretakers (not OWNERS) of natural wonders. Increase the worth by collecting carbon credits for clean air. Jail would be pleasant compared to being sent to the dump! Made in USA All the paper is recyclable. The ink is vegetable oil-based ink. ..."
Sun Oven Solar Ovens and Enamel Roasting Pot
1 recommendation
"I admit, this is more of a curiosity to me. However, perhaps it could be a viable option to outdoor grilling. 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 t..."
Eco-Energy Radios
1 recommendation
"Bring on the solar. 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"

Rain Barrels, Downspout Diverters and Filters, Rain Barrel Kits
1 recommendation
"I think having any kind of rain barrel is a benefit, but for those that 'em usually want to push it further and further (especially those with a large garden). A 55 gallon barrel doesn't hold that much water (some say will fill in less than 5 minutes). For a much more elaborate plan, check out these guys. They have everything you need (for a price, of course). 30, 55, 75, 80, and (*gasp) 214-g..."
