As a great example of re-using waste, Dwell shows how to make a chair from cardboard boxes. Not what you'd call elegant, but if you've moved house recently, you could fill an auditorium with these babies made from the packing boxes.
Afromusing highlights a few green gadgets from DEMO 08 last month in California, including Green Plug, eliminating the need to buy, carry and dispose of multiple chargers for all the electronic devices you use to enhance life in your cardboard chair.
And Inhabitat reports on New York's first Greener Gadgets 2008 conference this month. In case you still need a reason to buy the Green Plug.
Being the responsible citizen you are, if you manage to tear yourself away from your gadgets, maybe you should have a Tesla Roadster in the garage. Greencars reports on real-world testing of this rare set of wheels.
Or if you feel like something a bit more energetic - but not too much - how about an electric bicycle? Seen in Cape Town!
