Most Huggable: Dumpster Diving, Green Home Labels, Cellulosic Ethanol + More

Dumpster diving, green houses, cellulosic ethanol most huggable

Meet Daniel and Amanda Burt, a very normal couple who just happen to dumpster dive.

A new study suggests that our current efforts to simply stabilize our carbon emissions -- as opposed to, say, completed zeroing them out -- are just not getting it done.

Green home labels are popping up everywhere, but how do you know what's really green and what's greenwashing?

A company called ECO2 Plastics has found a better way to recycle.

The first commercial cellulosic ethanol facility, actively converting waste biomass into renewable fuel, went online last month.

What exactly is "waste biomass"? I thought by it's definition biomass was biodegradable and useful to all sorts of organisms, how does biomass become waste?

a general comment on the site and this artical : Headlines are great for getting the 'news' out to all us headline skimmers, but/and thorough follow up is needed with complete stories ('the rest of the story's, and full critiques) so that hype jaded types like myself and prospective 'rubes' of shysters can make wise fact based decisions. Hype promoters of general concepts used by shysters helped kill the fledgling carreers of at least a generation of pioneers so far. Don't repeat that mistake.
