Vauban

We know cars are terrible polluters, butwould you give yours up? Vauban, a community in southwestern Germany, did justthat, and its 5,000 citizens are doing fine. Most streets are free of vehicles,and there are generous green spaces and good public-transport links, includingfast buses and bicycle paths.  When people must drive, they can turn to car-sharingclubs.  “All the citizens had the chance to plantheir own city,” says Andreas Delleke, an energy expert, “and it's just how we wanted it to be.”    Denmark

During the period of gas shortage in theearly 70s, Denmark decided to become self-sufficient ( 自足). So they began a few projects making smartinvestments along the way.

On the island of Samsoe, local families,fishermen and farmers bought wind turbines (涡轮机) toproduce their own energy. Within seven years these turbines were completelypaid for. And can you believe just one of wind turbines produces enoughelectricity for 600 households?

Trey Parker and Matt Stone

Trey Parker and Matt Stone, creators ofSouth Park, have built a sustainable castle with outer siding and inner flooringof recycled wood, recycled carpeting, high-efficiency boiler systems.

“I think more and more today, people are willing tomake a statement about the Earth and how they want to protect it,” Michael Rath, home designer and builder says."For high-end homes in this valley, this is entirely consistent with whatthey cost." P-NUT

Who doesn't love the name P-NUT—short for Personal-Neo Urban Transport? It's Honda'slatest attempt to create a tiny footprint for a new urban vehicle.

This little P-NUT is unique. With a centraldriving position, the car is designed to move in tight settings. The 11-foot micro car will seat three with two rear-seat passengers behind thedriver.

“The P-NUT concept explores the packaging and designpotential for a vehicle designed for the city lifestyle,” said  Dave Marek, a Honda design Spokesman.

Israel Company

Is it possible that annoying rush hourtraffic could become a source of renewable energy?

Israel's Technion Institute of Technologyclaims that if we placed special generators ( 发电机 )under roads, railways, and runways—we couldharvest enough energy to mass-produce electricity. A trial process has beenused on a smaller scale, in dance clubs for instance, where the pounding feetof dancers light up the floor.

"We can produce electricity anywherethere is a busy road using energy that normally goes to waste," said UriAmit, chairman of Israel's Technion Institute  of Technology.               Coffee

Coffee. Some of us can't start our daywithout it, and we don't mind waiting 10 minutes in line for it.

Here is the most effective tip to make youa superstar in environment protection.

Get a coffee machine for your home oroffice, or persuade your company into buying one.  (Tell them it willimprove productivity. ) Skip the coffee line on the way to work and makesomething that is better-tasting and much better for your wallet.

Plus, you won't need those plastic cups orcarrying cases that just get thrown away. Better yet, use your favorite travelmug.
