The Korowai tribe which counts about 3000 people is one of the weirdest tribes in the world. They live in southeastern Papua/New Guinea and their culture still remains isolated from the modern civilization. As most of tribes, they have many weird customs and some of them consider cannibalism, too.

Like the fact that they are living in their own tribal way is not weird enough, they have something what makes them even more weird and unique. They have developed their own techniques of building tree houses on extremely tall trees.

Here you can see some of photos which are showing us how some of their homes are magnificent and some of photos are showing the process of constructing those buildings.

We are witnessing the fact that our urban settlements are becoming cold and dark bunch of steel and concrete. That is against the humans nature and is against the nature at all. Humans naturally do not feel comfortable in such urban areas where you cannot see a single plant.

Studuio Seilern Architects came to an interesting idea to create a building which will not bounce from the standards of urban life and still it will be eco-friendly and will look like a green park.

Here you can see some of photos of conceptual design of the urban building which should contain a lot of plants in it. The project is named Whitehorse Street Development and it is planned to be built in London, United Kingdom.

When they finish it, it will look like a green oasis in the desert of cold steel constructions. This luxury housing complex is aimed to be finished before May 2012.

Now here is a pretty cool sea scooter which can replace the dolphins and it is not so hard to catch it at all

Here you can see a photos of eco-friendly scooter which is designed by Design Icon. It is powered by an electric engine so it doesn’t pollute the environment. It can be used for diving and for riding the waves.

Here you can see the car that runs on coffee and its name is Car-puccino. It is actually modified Volkswagen Scirocco from 1988. The constructor of this machine claims that the car will be driven from Manchester to London using the power of roasted coffee granules. Via

Wood is really nice material to build anything that is touchable and I have seen a lot of different wooden house interiors but this one is way more bizarre of all of them. Venetian sculptor Livio De Marchi wasn’t satisfied only with regular furniture that can be made from wood, he decided to make almost everything in his house from wood and as you can see from following photos he done that pretty well.

If you look in his wardrobe which is, of course, made from wood, you’ll find there a beautiful suit made from wood. I doubt that wooden books are readable but Livio made a bunch of them. And at the end, there is a wooden oven and in front of his house is wooden car. It sounds like obsession to me. Author site .

The final result is amazing. She says that she creates those sculptures from a different discarded objects from peoples’ houses. She claims that the fact that those objects were part of other peoples’ lives before she took them gives her a special inspiration for creating such artworks. Author site .

The entire house is built with 15 recycled shipping containers. After it is finished, you would never notice that it is built from containers and it has a very fashionable design.

This home is built in Marseille, France where you can find a plenty of shipping containers that are waiting to be recycled and used again. Maybe the coolest fact is that this home is pretty mobile and it could be eventually relocated to another place.

This house is one of the examples how home can be built without spending much money. This house has been built from a cheap recycled materials.

But those people are not just savvy they are also pretty creative, you can see how some of the walls, doors and roof are mosaic-like decorated. And when you look it inside it looks really nice and makes you wonder who wouldn’t like to live there. Surely, a reasonable house siding is needed to complete the beautiful house.

Fossil fuel is able to be exhausted and soon. Solar power on the other hand is sustainable, maintainable, and inexhaustible. It doesn’t put out emissions or pollute our air in any manner; it can even be used for all of your energy needs.

If you use solar energy, you can expect your utility bills to fall drastically, possibly even disappearing altogether. Besides saving on energy costs, installing solar PV panels is a great way to add to your home’s property value. They require very little upkeep and do not disfigure your home’s roofline. Solar-generated electricity is especially popular in Germany, which leads the world in the adoption of this technology.

Why choose solar energy? There are many reason why the biggest one is the money and also your doing mother nature a favor. Australia is the luckiest nation in the world. The geography gives them the chance to use the most natural, sustainable and clean energy in there homes using the energy from the sunlight.

The first thing that will strike you once you start using solar energy in your home is how much cheaper your power bills now are, and this alone should be enough to convince you. An enormous, cost free energy source, zero emissions, environmentally friendly, and economical – small wonder that solar energy is fast becoming the energy source of choice.

This solar energy collection lasts hours more than other sources of energy. Once installed there will be no more expenditures and very little maintenance is required. Sun light is all you need to keep your home powered. You many also want to add wind mills for wind power if lack of sunshine is a problem.

Everybody comes out ahead when they start using solar power for their home energy needs, and Earth 4 Energy can help get you there. You can feel proud that you are both doing wonderful things for the environment as well as educating those around you to follow suit, and these days such inspiration can not come often enough. With us now being aware of what our actions are costing the Earth in terms of depleted resources and destroyed environments, turning to solar energy is both a well thought out, as well as economical, decision.

Solar power is an easy way to save yourself money and save the environment at the same time; we hope people convert to solar and wind energy use to keep the Earth a clean and healthy place to live. Earth 4 Energy can help you make this your reality! Visit homemade-renewable-energy.com for more information.

Renewable energy expert Tony Jallit has been studying alternative energy resources for years and his recommendations has made hundreds if not thousands of individuals overcome the high cost of electricity.

When a hundred years ago the millers ground their flour with grindstones power by the wind, they weren’t thinking about the primary use of windmills today: generating electricity. Windmills have little other purpose today. In california alone, there are over 16,000 windmills positioned to capture the power in the wind through super large blades on high towers, often 100’s of feet above the ground.

Wind power was always explored. Even by the early humans. They used it first to drive their sailships accross the oceans long before they had engines. They still use iwnd to power there water pumps to drive water accross the fields when electricity is not readily available. Powering water pumps and huge saws was done by the wind centuries ago.

The 1973 Oil crisis changed many peoples traditional view about fossil views and so started paying closer attention to alternative energy sources such as wind and solar power. Before that wind power was much in the back seat and not seriously considered by most.

As we have to continue to think about our environment it becomes clear that solar and wind power are the alternative energy sources with the least negative impact. It is also not possible to exhaust these energy sources as long as the sun shines and the wind blows. WInd energy produces no chemical emissions hence there are practically no better alternatives available out there at this time.
