Quick Green Reads For The Weekend Volume Eight.
Its the weekend again, and even though I took a vacation last week, I am tired already. Why is it that when you take a trip that the minute you get back you feel like you never left? Anyways, on to this weekends Quick Green Reads. Have a good one!
- If you have a Prius and a house, you might be in luck to one day use your car to power your house. Yep, you read that right. PG&E has been working on a “vehicle to grid“ technology that will enable you to do just that. You would be able to power small appliances and lights, saving you money on your electric bill. And when things got really bad, you could sell your cars electricity back to the grid. I don’t know about you, but it sure sounds good to me!
- You think you are doing enough to help the environment? You have nothing on No Impact Man, and neither do I.
- When shopping for groceries, do your body some good by checking out the Worlds Healthiest Foods. Might be worth a look before heading out to the store.
- And finally, it looks like Wal-mart is going to rethink its strategy on organic foods. Seems the people that shop there do not buy the organics. Well, you cannot say they didn’t try! Oh wait, yes you can…

Of course they didn’t really try! This is a company that nearly bankrupted Huffy bikes unless Huffy agreed to start sweat-shoppin’ overseas. They force suppliers to work around them or sink - so if they really cared about organic, local, or even remotely sustainable practices, they would simply force their suppliers to comply, like they do with all the other products. Am I wrong on this?
