Eco-Beat, 2/4
Who says that Hollywood star power isn't a clean source of energy? Why is Cheap Trick re-wording one of its hit songs for the environment? Will the Prius get sucked into the massive Toyota recall? Today's Eco-Beat has the scoop on all the latest green news and tips.
Green in a Flash:
 "Valentine's Day" Production Goes GreenI'm referring to the movie, of course, not the holiday. With perhaps the most star-studded cast in history, "Valentine's Day" managed to keep it's production-print small with solar panels, hybrid trucks, reusable sets, stainless steel canteens and biodegradable dishware. |
 Cheap Trick Records "Green Police" for AudiConsidering the controversy over the "Green Police" Super Bowl ads, I've been wondering why doesn't Audi just change the name to something less Nazi-related. Well, it appears they hired Cheap Trick to re-record their hit "Dream Police" as "Green Police." So, there's that. |
 Kate Moss Goes MeatlessApparently, Kate Moss has given in to the constant pleading of friend Stella McCartney. No, Kate isn't going to ditch her much-maligned fur collection, but she has agreed to take on the Meat-Free Mondays ("Meatless Mondays" in the UK) challenge. |
 Will the Prius be the Next to be Recalled?Right smack in the middle of the largest (and most over-hyped) recall in Toyota's history, there's a new rumor that the 3rd-gen Prius is having software-related brake problems -- which may result in another round of recalls. Competitors are smelling blood in the water. |
 Wanna Make Your Own Soda?According to Grist, 80% of soda bottles never get recycled. But don't worry, slashing your soda-print is actually much easier than you might think. Cut out the middle man (and his plastic) and enjoy cola creations of your own design. Check out these DIY soda how-to's. |
