\"Core77<\/a>I don’t know about you but I’m always interested in new gadgets that will be better for the environment and greener to use. I’d never heard of this contest before but it’s their second year.<\/p>\n

The people at Core77:<\/p>\n

We invited designers to explore the concept of “Greener Gadgets.” Designs sought to minimize the environmental impact of consumer electronic devices at any stage in the product lifecycle. Areas of sustainability to consider included energy, materials\/lifecycle\/recycling, social impact, and educational development. Designers could focus on a particular area of human enterprise (learning, playing, communicating, etc.) or a particular context (work, home, school, etc.), a particular material, or a specific device. Entries could also seek to create new paradigms for products and services.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You can check out the designs and vote<\/a> on your favorite. I’m still working my way through the list of green devices. Some are outstandingly clever, some are ho-hum, some are WTF, but show some interesting solutions to the problem of how to do some activity in a new, novel way with less of an environmental impact.<\/p>\n

I’d love to hear what your favorite gadget from this list was and why — as much as the Core 77 people. Each gadget has its own page and there are comments on the gadget below the description. Another reason it’s taking so long to go through this list.<\/p>\n

Core77 deserves a round of cheers for sponsoring this effort.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
