Before and after the Becel Ride For the Heart , I was invited to the new home of an avid cyclist/architect and a baker in what might be called a transitional part of Toronto. From the outside one sees little more than a brick box inside a high fence; from the inside it is a very different story…. Read the full story on TreeHugger

Brendan Smialowski for the New York Times Peak Oil is not news to TreeHugger readers, but in the New York Times , John Leland talks to people who are preparing for food shortages, a collapse of the economy, a breakdown of civil order that many think is inevitable. He writes that “In bleak times, there is a boom in doom.” He puts the “doomers”…”somewhere between the environmental movement and the bunkered survivalists” and describes how they are packing away food, gold silver and no doubt guns and ammo for the inevitable collapse that will follow quic… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Images by B. Alter Get ready London: the first zero-emissions fuel cell hybrid taxi has been unveiled. It’s more than a concept: there should be 150 on the road by 2012, just in time for the Olympics . These traditional looking black cabs have no carbon emissions which is a huge plus in a big city like London. Black cabs are going green. They will run on a hydrogen fuel cell system, which converts hydrogen into electricity and the only emission is water vapour. Breathe deep. … Read the full story on TreeHugger

(Michael Pollan would not approve ) So while the … Read the full story on TreeHugger

TreeHugger has been a big fan of Steve Glenn and his Living Homes since it started . But when I first heard that they were coming to Canada I was a bit dubious, after a few years of working in the business here. I had concerns about the level of interest in modern prefab and the suitability of the Living Homes designs for the Canadian climate. Now, having seen what Gary Lands and Barry Campbell of Nexterra Green Homes are planning, I realize that I was completely wrong. They have addressed every one of the proble… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Image credit: Other Brooks Brother & HowStuffWorks Not long ago I was in New York, and was surprised at the number of restaurants proudly proclaiming that they sold “coal-fired pizza.” Having established that we were, indeed, talking about coal – not charcoal – I found myself outraged that folks could see burning coal in the center of the city, or anywhere for that matter, as a desirable selling point. I mean, what’s wrong with wood? That outrage has been on my mind a lot lately, because as we watch the public fail to grasp the connecti… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Photo credit: Joachim Plötz, Alfred Wegener Institute Bull elephant seals are well known for their size and earth-shaking fights during mating season. But what is also notable about them is their long trips to sea. Every year from March to April the males of the only reproduction colony of the Southern elephant seal in the Antarctic come to the South Shetland Islands for moulting, after which they return to sea and don’t come to land again until six months later for mating season in the Antarctic spring. This year during the tiny window of time that the b… Read the full story on TreeHugger
