phyto-purification-bathroom1

The Phyto-Purification Bathroom and Shower concept uses your wasted water, unused and usually flushed down the drain, to help aid the growth of an organic system which purifies the water, right in your bathroom.

The plants are organized in such a way that they aid each other’s growth and all play a vital role in the purification of the wasted water. The plants are used as a green solution and a filtering process, ended by a carbon filter to stop any remaining particles.

Pedal-Powered Monorail Saves Energy, Tightens Buttocks

schweeb

If I didn’t live in a cardboard box I might consider installing some sort of monorail system which could easily transport me around my vast estate. Since I’m such an awesomely eco-friendly guy, my monorail system would be totally pedal-powered. No motor needed.

The Shweeb is exactly that. An awkwardly named pedal-powered monorail system which simultaneously saves the Earth and tightens your buttocks. Since you’re on a track, there’s no reason why you can’t freely use your phone while getting from point A to point B, which sounds just snazzy to me.

“Remember… These Come From Trees” Stickers

these-come-from-trees

I understand why people are up in arms about Earth’s trees being demolished. I’m pretty sure we need them for some reason, other than the fact that they look pretty. The thing that drives me nuts is that people bitch and moan, but don’t do a damn thing about it.

These “Remember… These Come From Trees” Stickers allow you to remind people exactly what their main resource (other than caffeine) happens to be. Each sticker supposedly has the potential to save 100 lbs. of paper a year. Take heed, or we’re going to have to start making paper out of a more common resource, like gold or diamonds or something.

Just Say It: “My Reusable Bag Makes Me Better Than You” Shopping Bag

reuse-1

I can’t help that I’m a better person than you. It’s just how it is. I use a reusable fabric bag, rather than one of those ghastly paper or plastic bags. It’s the never ending battle of good versus evil and I’m on the “good” side of the spectrum. I recycle everything I possibly can.

I hop in my Hummer, cigar and aerosol air freshener in hand and I head over to the grocery store, ready to prove to the world just how much I care about the Earth’s well being. Want to world to know how much better you are than them? $7.99 is the price of eternal salvation.

Wine Packaging Converts To Lamp

Imagine if you received a bottle of wine as a gift. Not bad, right? Now imagine if the box that the wine came in could turn into a lamp. Yes, you read correctly. That’s how the boxes from Cava wines work. Even a bulb and ballast setup is included so you can light things up from the start. Ease the mood for the ladies, pour a glass of Shiraz and off come the panties. What more could you ask for from a bottle of wine? No recession talk, please.

Wilting Flower Monitors Energy Consumption

Here’s a device that’s shaped like a flower that you connect to your house via a wireless transmitter. It monitors the electricity consumed in your house in real time. Using too much energy will result in this flower’s demise, wilting at the first signs of wasted energy.

Designed by Carl Smith, the Wilting Flower will reward those who remain conscious of the amount of energy they use each day by standing tall, bright and blooming. Ideal for plant lovers and eco-nuts who need to be kept in check when it comes to their utility usage. A perfect match alongside the Water Watcher.

Biodegradable Cutlery Pen Caps

Here’s a great concept that would do wonders for those working in an office. This pen cap utensil set includes a plastic knife, fork and spoon, all of which are biodegradable. It’s called Din-Ink and was designed to “respect the environment.” Perfect for that old salad sitting in the office mini-fridge. Just grab two pens, slap on the knife and fork attachments and you’re ready to chow down. Hey, it beats using your fingers.

Green Wheels: The Enertia Electric Motorbike

Half-motorcycle, half-Prius, the Enertia motorbike is bound to turn heads. With a striking design reminiscent of some Harley-Davidson and Triumph models, this bad boy only does 50 MPH top speed, which may disappoint some. Then you’ll realize it’s a 100-percent electric bike with a bunch of batteries, right as you pass that Sunoco gas station with premium hitting $4.73 a gallon.

With a charge time similar to the Tesla Roadster (three hours) and the ability to plug in pretty much anywhere, the Enertia certainly seems worth the $12,000 price tag that puts it in the league of BMW and Ducati bikes. I wonder if it’s liquid-cooled though…
