Magic Marvelous Compost Bin Video

Do not take acid before you watch this. You really don’t need it. It already looks like something somebody came up with after a bad trip; in fact, it sort of resembles the crazy scene in The Pick of Destiny where Jack Black eats a mushroom and goes off on a fantastic colorful adventure with a Sasquatch.

“When Grandad died from drinking gin, we put him in my compost bin!”

McCain ’08: A Path to Extinction!

The blogosphere has been afire with commentary after John McCain announced that he was ‘going green’, and now Jon Stewart weighs in with his own analysis of the situation.

“It’s high time I take on this president who I have endorsed, complimented, and when the occasion called for something stronger, hugged. The point is this: Mr. President, the cuddles. Stop. Here.” [See the video below]

This isn’t exactly green, but it couldn’t be more Human. One drum, one hundred people, age 1-100. Pure Awesome.

Obama On The Environment & Energy: It’s (Mostly) Good News

It’s not flashy, but it’s important. Watch this video to hear what Barack Obama has to say about energy and the environment.

He’s wrong about corn based ethanol being a necessary part of the solution- we need to stop turning food crops into fuel full stop.

Other than that, and his stated favor of bullshit “clean coal”, Obama is pretty solid on the environment. It’s going to be a good atmosphere to be an eco-entrepreneur in, that’s for damn sure. We could just turn this thing around.

ZapRoot: Deadly Quiet Hybrids, Stupid Politicians, Towel 2.0, and Swag

ZapRoot 035 in short: silent hybrids could be slightly more dangerous to a miniscule number of blind people, so of course some stupid politician wants to require carmakers to install noisemakers in their cars; Pategonia has a new site that lets you track the entire lifecycle of shirts they sell; Zaproot is looking for Green Earth Day Videos and is giving away swag to the ones they like best, some guy has created the Towel 2.0; ReadyMade is going digital (about fifty years late eh?); and Green Energy Wastebusters are saving people money off their energy biill and using cool ass tools and gadgets doing it.

It’s So Simple It’s Genius: Green Affordable Homes From Landfill Scrap

Dan Phillips of Huntsville, TX has built an amazing home. It’s Dr. Seussian and is built using reused and recycled materials. It’s warm, organic, and entirely delightful. 85% of the home is built with items that were heading to the landfill or burn pile. He runs The Phoenix Commotion with his wife Marsha and their goal is to spark a movement helping the working poor build homes for $20k-50k.

People enrolled the program would be required to spend $500 on tools, have a regular job, and no or good credit. They’re paired up with a local building professional and build their home using left over local and scrap material that would otherwise be heading to the landfill.

Dan’s motto is “It’s so simple, it’s genius”. I think that just about nails it. Dan’s a genius with a smart idea and I hope to see it catch on everywhere. We’ll be following this one.

Guess What I’ve Done? I Invented a Light That Plugs Into the Sun

I found this one via my buddy Hank Green.

From Muggle Sam:

Wouldn’t it be cool if we all changed our light bulbs to energy saving ones?

A compact fluorescent light bulb uses 1/4 of the electricity and lasts 10 times longer than standard light bulbs. Something everyone can do to help reduce the amount of C02 emissions.

As The Boos Rained Down: President Bush Throws Out First Pitch in Green(er) Stadium

Michael recently reported that President Bush would throw out the first pitch in the Washington Nationals new green(er) stadium. Here’s video of him running out to a cascade of boos, quickly throwing his pitch (a good one for a throw-out pitch, I’ll give him that), and then retreating to the tunnels.

Our country does like this President.

Impeach!!!
