Eco Living with style. Viva Terra has some great earthy-products. Their website says: “living earth is inspired by our dedication to living in harmony with nature - for a healthier life now and for future generations.” Nice Job.
While their lines do have an “earthy” feel to them, it’s pretty refreshing. I can see a lot of their furniture and accessories in second homes, like a cabin or beach home.
We don’t have any kiddos yet so correct me if i’m wrong: Dirty diapers stink…big time. I’ve been around families that have dirty diapies hanging around the trash and it’s just gross. Good news folks. Embrace the world’s first flushable diaper, the gDiaper.
For the last 40 years there have been but two choices in diapers. Cloth or disposable. That’s it. Now gDiapers offers a third option. Flushable. gDiapers puts waste where it belongs, in the toilet. Not the landfill.

Here’s a new green campaign showing where trees could have been. Abscence makes the heart grow fonder. From their website:
Camalonian Columns is a woven light weight pavilion inspired by the way plants move and respond to their environment. It was developed during a residency at Kew, The Royal Botanical Gardens, London in spring 2008.
Interesting green campaign in Costa Rica. What first caught my eye was the amazing illustration.
If they leave, what will you breathe? The formula is simple: without trees there’s no oxygen.
Inhabitat recently covered an interesting story. World’s first illuminating glass.
Eco-friendly lightbulbs are an energy efficient step in the right direction, but it could be that the bulb’s days are numbered. First we had light-emitting wallpaper, and now Saazs’ light-emitting glass plates. Using planilum technology, these plates are the world’s first active light-emitting glass. Incorporated into shelves and tables, the technology provides beautiful, understated lighting for homes and offices.
This is a new Greenpeace campaign. I think it’s interesting.
The DNA of genetically modified plants may contain the genes of insects, animals or even viruses.
