We wonder what happens when you leave this in your pants pocket and sent it to the laundry by accident. Will it shred into pieces just like regular tissue paper, leaving only the circuitry behind, or is it hardier than expected?

Don’t have green fingers as every single plant that has gone through your hands inexplicably dies off sometime down the road regardless of how much love, care and attention you shower upon it? Things might take a turn for the better with the Power Plant Growing Machine.

A result of pioneering NASA technology this mains-powered box of magic lets you grow plants, all season, without soil. A nifty internal microjet system constantly sprays roots with super-oxygenated, nutrient rich water so crops grow bigger and stronger. All you do is add water to a special nutrient mix (included) and pour it over the spongy strip that sits below the brim of the Power Plant. Next, sow your seeds on the sponge, replace the lid, stick the whole shebang on the window sill, sit back and dream of Alan Titchmarsh. Once the shoots appear, maintenance is minimal. You can even use the Power Plant to grow flowers.

This green growing machine can be used over and over again, making the £34.95 asking price pretty much a bargain considering the virtually unlimited use down the road. Perfect for folks who’ve always wanted a budding garden but never quite had the talent to match their ambition.

With the SodaStream Soda Kit, soft drink fans can save 75% by making their own Pop.

If you knew anything about me, you’d know that I should probably have stock in Coca Cola since I drink so much of the stuff. I know, I know, worst thing for me. But it’s the one vice I allow myself. Considering a can of Diet Coke can run you over a buck these days, the cost can not only add up, but it’s one of the largest profit margins there is in the snack world next to popcorn. So, how can you lower your costs and still get your soda pop fix? Look no further than SodaStream.

It might seem odd for someone to design a household product after an onion, especially a product that is meant to sanitize the interior of your home.  However, that’s just what one designer, Yun Li, did.  As to what possessed them to create an onion shaped UV light, I have no idea.  No matter what the shape of the gadget though, it will sanitize your home.  The best part is that it does this in an eco-friendly manner, which is always a bonus.

There’s now a new light bulb out there that gives you the energy efficiency you love, along with a slightly more traditional light bulb look.  I’ve heard of several people that aren’t very fond of the look of spiral bulbs, yet they still use them since it does cut back on their power bill.  Well this small LED bulb keeps things energy efficient in a very different way that allows for it to be shaped this way.  It actually uses liquid-cooling technology.

This is one of those inventions most of the world really would probably wish it was never created.  To be more specific everyone around the person that owns one of these will really really wish that it would just break.  It can be reused time and time again, you’ll never need a refill for it like you would a normal air horn.  Which means misery for all those around the person that owns it, up until they wise up and “accidentally” smash it.

Of all eco-friendly gadgets, a lot of the eco-friendly lights are my absolute least favorite gadget.  Specifically the flashlights that are powered by being wound up.  They always seem to be far too dim to actually see what it is you’re doing.  Hopefully since this one is solar powered as opposed to the type that you wind up, they’ll be a little on the brighter side of things.  Certainly the number of LED lights that they crammed into this flashlight will help at least a little bit.
