Environmental post January 2008
Posted by Pixelhead
Here are some environmental sites, pages and stories that I noticed over the last month.
-
I came across the post Japanese Wind Power Efforts Head Offshore on EcoWorldly.com. Sounds like a pretty good idea to put windmills on the ocean. Hopefully those sea gulls won’t be running into the propellers. With a bunch of windfarms and wave parks, we will be generating a lot of watts from the ocean.
-
Gengreen.org, seeks to create a place to connect green businesses in the US.

-
Also from Wired, check out the Eco Wash from Pratt & Whitney that is used to wash Jet engines at $3,000 to $5,000 a wash. Care to invest in a jet washing business?
Nature Photography
- A local photographer that I recently became aware of has some pretty awesome Photos. Lizzie and I were at the local Dairy Queen, and Mike Fisher has some sample photos in a three ring binder along with his note card there. I think that is a pretty cool offline marketing technique that does not involve much cost or time. Mike also blogs at The Photography and Travel Place, which is a relatively new blog, but from the looks of Mike’s experience, will be teamed with lots of great photography information.
- Check out Forrest’s One Square Inch in The Rainforest to learn about a piece of North America that is in jeopardy.
Well that is about it for this months enviromental post. If you have any enviromental news I should note next month, please leave a comment.

I’m glad to see some new innovative ideas that help the environment. Raising consciousness about environmental issues is important, as people have neglected it for the past century… hopefully we can make some big changes in the way we view our earth so that it stays around and remains a safe place to inhabit for a few more centuries.
I need to get into the jet washing business! That’s a crazy amount to get paid, but I suppose there are dangers involved as well.
