Sleep expert We Love Sleep is the first UK retailer to jump into the eco bed properly with their 100% Organic Bedroom!
“What the hell is that” I hear you say… well it consists of a traditionally made organic divan mattress, organic silk bedding and an air-purifying night light which cleans the air whilst you sleep.
Believe it or not, most mattresses today are covered in all manner of nasty chemicals which you no doubt breath in 8 hours every night and which lead to asthma, rashes and all manner of other nastys… I personally think we are looking into the future of bedding!
If a product is being offered by Harrods Department Store - London, you can guarantee it rates as uber luxury. They really do set the benchmark.
That’s definitely the case with this glorious Vectrix Pearlised Electric Maxi Scooter. Reasonably priced at £8,100 ($16,200) it won’t break the bank. But sleek looks, a green pedigree and lots of gizmos will put you in your element with this uber scooter....
The location for the world’s largest ‘green’ property is Palm Beach, Florida. It is being constructed by real estate tycoon Frank McKinney, who actually looks like an extra from a Guns N’ Roses video!
The ‘legend’ as they call him in the States is building the property without a buyer in mind which could be considered a bit risky by many, but based on the ‘green aware’ consumer today this place will get snapped up by some paparazzi craving film star who wants to be seen as doing something good for the planet! The hose will be called “Acqua Liana”.
Take a little look at this bucket designed by Stefano Merlo. It charges up during the day taking in the light from the sun, and glows at night!
The bucket charges through solar panels placed on the top of the bucket. A hugely eco friendly way of lighting up a path or just random parts of the garden.
I must add that this is simply a concept at the moment, but no doubt they will be everywhere in the next few years.
