Shit? Great for fuel.

Check out how the women in Shaanxi created their abundance from human and animal waste collected.



In seeking for a solution to stop erosion by cutting down trees for fuel, the Shaanxi Mothers won an Ashden Award for Sustainable Energy in 2006 for their efforts.

Not keen about using your excreta to create fuel? How about using food waste? Here is how a homemade anaerobic digesters look like.



Like that? Then let LordVaader show you what components you need and how to assemble them to make your own.

Threadless gone green

Check out what 13 participants of “Threadless Loves Green” design challenge have created in celebration of Earth Day.

My favourite is this design by Steven Lefcourt which represents the birth of earth with the presence of water and vegetation making our planet unique.





If you purchase any of these tees from 20 to 27, April, Threadless will donate $1 to the Plant a Billion Trees Charity.

3) Municipal Composting
4) BRIKES
5) Wood Pellets

If I can add to this list, it would be sculptures of wildlife on logs to commemorate the lost of wildlife in this natural disaster.

If you would like to visualise what it would be like, check out the chainsaw carvings of artist, Randall D Boni, on his website, Abundance Acres.

I discovered him through an email I received of his creations. He has discovered his abundance from the abandoned since 1989.

And from the UK, there is another chainsaw sculptor, Simon O'Rourke. Check out photos of his creations posted on slideshare.
