Hydrogen Fuel Cells and You

http://world.honda.com/FuelCell/

This is a very exciting technology, I just hope the test release goes well, and that Honda [honda.com] can begin full scale production. The initial release will only see a very limited test market in the southern California area. With a $600/month lease price, it is not exactly being marketed to the average Joe. The real question to be asked, is will Honda sell these at a loss for the first few years to get them into the mainstream of the market place like Toyota [toyota.com] did with the Prius? I hope so.

AMP Motorworks [ampmotorworks.com] has developed another vehicle that some people can get their hands on in the near future. This Cincinnati startup is converting the Saturn Sky [to a full electric high performance sports car. The first 300 'Charter Members' will see a price point of about $50K - $60K, but as wee all know it does not take very long for prices in the new technology sector to fall.

Avoiding the landfill is easer than ever

In case you have not heard, recycling is good. Freecycle is a group oriented, community-centric organization that has become a very successful way to match people that have stuff to get rid of with people that need stuff. The end results being less usable stuff in the landfill, and a healthy shot of good karma. Try it, you will like it! [http://www.freecycle.org]
