Everything Green Oregon Expo


If you are up in the NW and happen to be in Portland this weekend, stop by the Everything Green Expo and see our good friend Dennis Rose from Eclectic Home. Dennis will be showing a bunch of very cool eco friendly furnishings for indoors and out. (including a few Maku pcs!)

Better yet, pick up an organic mattress from Eclectic Home and break it right for Valentines Day...!

Aptera


While on the subject of Electric cars, check out Carlsbadistan based Aptera. Aptera is on the cutting edge of eco friendly automobiles and should have production out and rolling by late fall 2009. These all electric vehicles will be priced from $20,000-$40,000!

Aptera is even using P.E.T. (recyled plastic bottles and cups) for the seats and other parts of the car along with Eco Friendly dyes, etc. And the best part a whopping 230 miles per gallon is achieved in part by a lower coefficent of drag than what Lance Arstrong has on his bike!! WOW!

Now if they only made an Aptera pickup, we'd be all over it. It's pretty cool nonetheless to see a company like Aptera in our humble little village by the sea.
