That’s one of the reasons why integrating them into fashion and home decor has been so difficult. But Sony aims to change that with a new product called Hana Mado, or “Flower Window,” introduced at the Eco Products 2010 exhibition in Tokyo last weekend. … Read the full story on TreeHugger

There was a massive “elephant in the room”, according to the AP , that “nobody wanted to talk about.” Any guesses as to which elephant the AP was referring to? I’ll give you a hint — it’s big, powerful, ideologically unified, and it gene… Read the full story on TreeHugger
