- Speaking of electric cars — here’s why 2010 might be a critical year for their future (Planetary Gear).
- Inhabitat names its top 8 green iPhone apps.
- New PLoS One study: If an area is protected, it’s probably already remote and inaccessible to humans (Journal Watch Online).

I like story number 2 and 3.
Problem about electric car is not just about the car emission but it’s also the source of electricity itself. If the the source of power comes from burning coal or other unclean energy then this doesn’t really solve our main problem.
It’s just simply moving all of the car exhaust and putting them altogether to the energy plant.
