| Organic Soup Delivery By Bike, Meet SoupCycle Posted: 25 Mar 2010 06:12 PM PDT
Here’s another idea that falls into the “why didn’t I think of that” category. SoupCycle. As the name implies, this company serves up piping hot delicious organic soup and delivers it weekly by bike, to local residents. The idea is the brain child of Jed and Shauna in Portland, Oregon. They create big batches of vegan, vegetarian, and some meat soup varieties using only local and organic ingredients, and then hop on what looks like a tricycle of sorts and deliver the batches to customers, called Soupetarians. Cute enough, yes? Very. And smart, too. They have served up over 10,000 bowls of their organic soup since the Summer of 2008. For more info and if you’re lucky enough to live in the Portland, Oregon area, give Jed and Shanna a ring. via Springwise Need Green Web Hosting? Check out our latest review of green web hosts.

| iPhone App Saves Gas By Finding You A Parking Spot Posted: 25 Mar 2010 04:59 PM PDT
You know there’s an iPhone app for just about every conceivable idea or problem, right? Well here’s another cool one you might be interested in. iSpot Swap. This iPhone app lets you know via it’s “geo tagging” feature, where certain parking spots are. How does it work? You punch into your phone your spot and approximate time of when you’ll be leaving it, then another car who is looking for an open spot will find yours. And vice versa. A simple but useful idea for an iPhone app, give it a try today at the Apple iTunes store. via Inhabitat Need Green Web Hosting?

The eco wiper blades from Triple Edge are 100% recyclable, the first of its kind in the world. These work the same as traditional wiper blades, but they’re made of a material which makes it easier to recycle and dispose of. Since it’s recommended that you change your wiper blades annually, this adds up to ALOT of waste, to the tune of 3,138,767 each year. That’s tremendous waste. I’m sure it’s just a matter of time, before many products including recurring car repair and maintenance parts are all made of recycled material and or 100% recyclable at end of life.

| New Fur Industry PSA Video From Joaquin Phoenix Posted: 25 Mar 2010 03:33 PM PDT Ever the animal champion, Joaquin Phoenix has created a PSA video to create awareness of how vicious the fur industry is and how many celebrities walk around wearing fur as a commercial statement. Yet have no clue what a horrendous practice and industry they are supporting. Joaquin Phoenix is a BIG animal supporter and always has been, even way back when he was normal. You know, before the beard and rapp gig. Watch the video and support Joaquin in his most righteous cause. via Ecorazzi Need Green Web Hosting? Check out our latest review of green web hosts.

| Posted: 24 Mar 2010 11:49 PM PDT  This is one lamp that should throw you off guard. Taking the shape of a traditional filament light bulb, the lighting inside is actually made possible by a more energy efficient LED light. It carries a modern yet attractive looking design and doesn't offer sophisticated shades which should emit the proper lighting levels you will need. (Source) Trend Hunter Need Green Web Hosting?
