Roundup: Birds, Pandas and Chairs

Green energy tradeoff I: Trees vs. Solar Panels

Green energy tradeoff II: Birds (and bats) vs. Turbines (and here, and here)

Personally, I'd like to see more helix-shaped turbines which don't have these same problems.

Climate change is... good for the environment?

Cool prefab furniture.

My favorite plant family fights fires.

This guy is at MOMA for a few more weeks.

Green roof/ramp in Singapore.

Panda's best friend.

Saving the other built environment.

Green Tradeoffs: Fuel Efficiency vs. Urban Planning

Nice sails

I may be a little slow on this one, but I just discovered GigaOM Network's excellent Earth2Tech blog. It covers the cleantech beat from all angles. Check it out here. Cool items of note from that blog: Sail-powered ships returning to the ocean (kinda) and this awesome people-powered bike that filters water (winner of Google's Innovate or Die! challenge). Kudos!
