Here is a neat lantern that you can perhaps use when you go camping or at times when blackouts occur. Rather than turn to expensive kerosene lamps, here is one that recharges using solar power. The Kiran Solar Lantern is 5 times brighter than a kerosene lantern and is good for use up to 8 hours on a full charge. It can be plugged in as well but just in case you find yourself in calamities where electricity is cut, at least you can harness the power of the sun to get some lighting solutions your way.

Price: $10.00

The Cool iREV Party Boat Has Electric Motor

irev party boat

GreenMuze reports on an oddly shaped all electric party boat called the iREV.

The donut shaped party vessel known as the iREV is powered by a 2.5 hp electric motor and batteries that last up to 10 hours when fully charged.

The 360 degree floating vessel seats ten people under cover of an enormous umbrella and features a host of festive options including a low smoke BBQ grill, sound system and satellite radio.

Why is GreenMuze reporting this in October when everyone is out of the water? Not sure, but I suppose those in South America or tropical regions can still knock themselves out with this luxury sustainable water vessel. And it’s pretty cool even if it is October.

The retail price on the iREV is $24,000.

mud graffiti by jesse graves

If you’re a child of the eighties you know all about graffiti wall art as it was HUGE back then.

But this is not 1988, it is 2009 and graffiti is now eco friendly. Yes graffiti as drawn by artist Jesse Graves is still transfixed on city walls and streets, but it’s made from a mud base, not toxic spray paint.

Jesse Graves is leading the eco graffiti movement and through his website, he’s encouraging other street artists to use mud graffiti for their art. How? By giving step by step instructions on how to make it and use it. Safely, easily and cheaply.

With mud graffiti, artists get the same results and are able to spread their messages, but in an earth friendly way.
