Treehugger: Book Review: Woody Harrelson’s “How to Go Furtherâ€
Now if he would go one step further and make it available as a download or even set it up as a website. He would be able to get the message over to a LOT more people and would use NO paper or ink but have less or no income from it either. guess it depends if the message or the money is more important.
Treehugger: Sense Of Place – Sustainable Cornish Design
Love the table and stools! Gotta try something along this line meself…
Treehugger: An Old Broom Sweeps Clean
And to think that with just a broom he would have been several pounds lighter and much cooler. Not to mention the level of noise that wouldn’t have been generated with the blower. But he might have had to move more than his legs which in todays workforce would be considered cruel and unusual punishment… 🙁
Full Belly Project
Interesting and useful project.
Wood Bikes You Can Make

London Free Press – Local News – U.S. scientist pulled into pesticide debate
I personally like “weeds” and have never used pesticides on the lawn. Glad to see the problems with cosmetic use start to make headlines.
Business 2.0: A car that could save the planet—fast – May. 5, 2006
Love the Porsche’s drivers comment:
“It never occurred to me that I would lose,” says Kim Stuart, the Porsche’s driver. “It was like a light switch. He hit the pedal and was gone.”

Treehugger: Turning Parking Spaces into Parks
Okay. Not sure about this. The art or the concept.
Treehugger: The Sandwich Bike – Two for One
Weirder still. Interesting concept. Website is one of those artistic euro things. Download is a bunch of pix that could have been put on the site to MUCH better effect.
Interesting design on bike but not site…
Treehugger: Strawbale Housing in Europe
More strawbale goodness from Treehugger!
Treehugger: Northern Dogtrot Retreat- a Nice Place to Unfold
Nice looking small retreat. Wish I could see the site, but as with so many of these architectural sites, they depend ENTIRELY on FLASH so I (and I am sure quite a few linux users) can’t even see the site.
Note to folks with websites that depend on flash —
NOT EVERYONE IS WILLING OR ABLETO DOWNLOAD A PLUGIN THAT WILL ALLOW THEM TO SEE YOUR OH SO CUTE FLASH CRAP SITE!
The web was built to operate using “htnl” as the primary language. ALL browsers support “html”. Many DO NOT support “flash” which is a proprietary bandwidth hog and IS NOT designed to render entire websites with, no matter what Macromedia may claim.
If you just HAVE to have flash on your site try to have another site rendered in standard html that the browser is redirected to that will allow viewing of your site…
UPDATE — I have heard from someone at this site and other than a problem with my remark “YOUR OH SO CUTE FLASH CRAP SITE” says that they are working on an html version of the site.
Also I want to clarify that I didn’t mean that their site is crap (I can’t view any of it so I really can’t know, now can I?) but that FLASH is a CRAP language in which to render an entire website.
Treehugger: O2 Sustainability Treehouse
A different kind of tree house. Really different…
