Green TushJust because Blog Action Day is over doesn't mean we should stop looking for ways to end climate change around the world. And many of these ways can be a lot simpler than passing laws, foregoing children, or resolving to never drive again.
To wit, here's a new device that could allow you to reduce water usage, electricity, and even deforestation every single day -- if you're regular, that is.
Lloyd Alter of TreeHugger.com spotted this detachable bidet at the Home expo in Toronto a few weeks back. Produced in China, the Blue Bidet almost eliminates your need for toilet paper (you still need a little to dry yourself off), and that reduces the toll on the environment caused from producing those countless rolls of tissue. Oh, and you'll be cleaner, too.

So true! Topics like this must be tackle always for the fact that this is so important for everyone. For those that have lives and don't care about the latest cell phones (those silly people that have things to do and girlfriends and such) the Samsung Moment is a new smart phone, based on the Android operating system. It will be carried exclusively by Sprint, although it isn't the only smart phone that Sprint offers with Android capabilities. It features a touch screen, and a full QWERTY keyboard, 3G and all the digital bells and whistles you can shake a stick at. One would imagine that with the release of the Samsung Moment a veritable bevy of people whose Blackberry just isn't new enough will be getting unsecured personal loans to get one.
It's a joke right? Instead of using paper you use water!! I'm amused that it's taken the Americans so long to figure this out. Still, this might be OK if you live in a country with plenty of water, like the UK. In Australia you might prefer to drink it, or more importantly right now, use it to put out fires!
