Napgrass. Wow.

You may have seen this earlier, but we really wanted to dig deep when we saw this stuff. It’s hard to write anything intelligent about this Schlafgras (which translates nicely into “sleeping grass”) because I can’t quite get over the pic. Too…many…jokes. But really, you don’t need me to quip at how ridiculous it is,…

We Dont Need No Stinkin Oil

Windmills make a lot of sense, giving us free energy that’s all around us. But what happens when it’s not windy? Build the windmills up high, very high—we’re talking between 15,000 and 35,000 feet high, where powerful jet stream winds blow pretty much all the time. Worldchanging describes how to accomplish this with three different…
