October Environment Post
Posted by Pixelhead
From Treehugger, 30 Different Ways to Put a Roof Over Your Head…with all the layoffs and the way the economy is people are going to be needing this type of housing…a better class of Hoovervilles?
Speaking of shelter, I came across this site which sells Earth Shelter Technologies…these look like some pretty sweet
Earth friendly homes.
Next, a somewhat sarcastic web page, The Most dangerous Species in the Mediterranean, really reminds me of the Plastic Ocean article again.
DailyTech has a post about “60 Minutes” Catching a Tech Firm Red Handed by exporting tech garbage to China…this article really makes me think about all the computers and cell phones that I have had within the last decade…I wonder were they all are now? Sadly, it also makes me realize that my spending habits do affect others.
The environmental video of the month is the entertaining Blue Man Group “Earth to America” video.
From Mixx,
- I came across Internet Revolution Could Save Earth: Al Gore. Interesting article…I had no idea Digg and Twitter played such an important role in getting Obama elected. Do all those mom who voted for him have Twitter and Digg accounts?
- PopGoesGreen.com has a post that lists three sites that allow even poor people to help out with the environment.
- Hybrid Pace Cars article…I think this is very hopeful, as a ton of innovations have come from the racing realm, why not improvements in Hybrid technology.
Another Treehugger post 7 Electric Motorcycles grabbed my attention and ended by giving me a link to an article that answers the questions “what happens to all those batteries?”.
Check out those cool looking bikes… 
While we are on the environmental category of transportation, I came across an article on a cool new car that runs on air…I seriously doubt we will see these in the US anytime soon, but it looks and sounds like an interesting concept. 
Lastly, Nicole, one of the top October commentators, has a post about getting Green tax breaks…she has more than a few good tax related links in this post like how to get up to $7500 towards an environmentally friendly car, so check it out.
If you like the October environmental post why not show some appreciation and 
and/or 
…thanks…send in your environmental links for next month by commenting or contacting me on any of the various social networks such as Plurk.

Wow, the links are all mind blowing. The start to 30 Different Ways to Put a Roof Over Your Head… is scary but as one scrolls down, it gets to be quite interesting. The Most dangerous Species in the Mediterranean is again a wake up call. All our oceans are going through this horrendous pollution.
Thanks for the plug in too.
