No surprise, there is an abundance of coverage on these topics, and below are a few recent stories that piqued our interest.
From Forbes, The Future of US Solar is Bright gives a great overview of the current solar landscape in the US, how we compare globally, and where we're poised to be in the years to come.
Forbes also recently ran a great story, Growing Leafy Greens in Massive, Sustainable Greenhouses, about a new business, Revol Greens, revolutionizing the way in which food grows on a large scale AND sustainably.
And even LEGOs is stepping up their eco-game. In TechRound's Building a Sustainable Future from Lego Bricks, we discover Lego's renewed push to make their environmentally UNfriendly little plastic toys out of more eco-friendly material. Fingers crossed that the new material will also feel sliiiiightly better when unexpectedly stepping on one in the middle of the night.
