Being interested in all things geeky, I have followed the Chevy Volt since it was first seen at the Detroit Auto show in 2007. During this time many new details have been shown and revisions made. This is the first time I have actually become truly excited about a car. To me a car has always [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2009/01/28/chevy-volt-suggestions/feed/ 3 http://greenerthinking.com/2008/05/29/to-go-green-you-must-start-with-the-grass-part-2/ http://greenerthinking.com/2008/05/29/to-go-green-you-must-start-with-the-grass-part-2/#comments Fri, 30 May 2008 05:49:39 +0000 Jonathan http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=260
As stated in my previous article To Go Green You Must Start With The Grass I had decided to purchase a new Craftsman 48 Volt Battery Powered Mower to put my own “Green Credentials” to the test. This was a bid to unchain myself from the Energy Mafia. Now lets “Cut” to the chase (Yes, lame).  When I first started [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2008/05/29/to-go-green-you-must-start-with-the-grass-part-2/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2008/05/06/to-go-green-you-must-start-with-the-grass/ http://greenerthinking.com/2008/05/06/to-go-green-you-must-start-with-the-grass/#comments Wed, 07 May 2008 05:48:16 +0000 Jonathan http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=256
While on my way to work, pausing at every red light, I came to a point of frustration rarely seen. Yes, some of that frustration had to do with people who get in a car and try to drive somewhere automatically lose 78% of their brain. OK, its not really true… it just seems that [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2008/05/06/to-go-green-you-must-start-with-the-grass/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2008/03/04/for-the-world-or-for-you-does-it-matter/ http://greenerthinking.com/2008/03/04/for-the-world-or-for-you-does-it-matter/#comments Wed, 05 Mar 2008 05:40:25 +0000 Daniel http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=238
With new environmentally-friendly products being developed at an amazing pace and sales of these products rising exponentially, it makes you wonder why. I mean, you would think the answer would be obvious. The planet is in dire need of any help we can give it, so people are doing their best to help out, right?

Being part of the computer world, you are offered certain terms that the rest of society gives you the confused, head cocked to the side, puppy stare. One of these terms is “Mod.” Everyday people do this even though they may not know it. The simplest example of a “Mod” is when an iPod is [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2008/01/31/chevy-volt-modding/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/20/tesla-roadster-revisited/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/20/tesla-roadster-revisited/#comments Wed, 21 Nov 2007 05:31:17 +0000 Daniel http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=218
It has been six months since my last article about the Tesla Roadster, so I thought it was about time for a quick follow-up. Tesla Motors has since sold out of their 2008 model due to huge demand. Among big name purchasers of the first Roadsters were Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and Google Founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Tesla Motors [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/20/tesla-roadster-revisited/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/16/how-can-a-nanosolar-be-so-big/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/16/how-can-a-nanosolar-be-so-big/#comments Sat, 17 Nov 2007 05:30:37 +0000 Jonathan http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=216
The greatest advancements in technology are when you create a product previously though impossible at a price that seems impossible all while making a profit not thought possible. These things don’t come around too often but when they do, they stick out like a sore thumb… well a happy sore thumb.  An example of this is [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/16/how-can-a-nanosolar-be-so-big/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/05/chevy-volt-plug-in-hybrid/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/05/chevy-volt-plug-in-hybrid/#comments Tue, 06 Nov 2007 05:27:58 +0000 Jonathan http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=208
What would happen if there was a car that could take you to work and back without ever going to the gas station. Or if you could drive the distance of Michigan’s Lower Pennisula from Ohio to the Mackinac Bridge… and then all the way west to Wisconsin on one tank of gas. Or even [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/11/05/chevy-volt-plug-in-hybrid/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/26/earth-smaller-than-your-thumb/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/26/earth-smaller-than-your-thumb/#comments Sat, 27 Oct 2007 05:25:46 +0000 Jonathan http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=202
Drifting through the infinite darkness of space, you find that everything that you know, everything that you have ever touched, and millions of people you have not even met yet are combined, smaller than your thumb. Only 12 people in human existence, as we know it, have ever set foot on the moon. Some people [...]]]> http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/26/earth-smaller-than-your-thumb/feed/ 0 http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/25/the-hottest-fuel-around/ http://greenerthinking.com/2007/10/25/the-hottest-fuel-around/#comments Fri, 26 Oct 2007 05:25:14 +0000 Daniel http://larrythelitterbug.com/?p=200
This week there is something going on that comes about only once every two years. The Panasonic World Solar Challenge in Australia started October 21st and goes until October 28th.
