If you live in New York, you might have seen something interesting showing up on people's backs lately: solar panels. It's not common and it's certainly not a trend, but backpacks and laptop bags with solar panels exist and they're in use. Isn't that somewhat impressive on its own?

WARNING: If you have not seen "Quantum of Solace," read no further. I will spoil a plot point or two in the words below. Go check out a roundup of spoiler-free Quantum of Solace reviews.

Let me start by saying that I was told to go see the...

When I first saw the name "Whale Wars," I thought to myself, "this had better be about whales fighting each other. Then I saw the trailer and I was pretty impressed despite the fact that no whales fought one another.

Much more sadly and less whimsically, it's about whales unable...

I still have friends asking me about the major events of the bailout -- what happened, why did it matter? -- and it occurred to me that not everybody had been glued to CNBC throughout the crisis. About the same time, someone said to me that they loved, for whatever...

This is a quick one for you, dear readers. Consider this a gift amid a roller-coaster economy, the coming cold and ClothingGate.

As you likely know, the Huffington Post has pages that aggregate all of the news on...

Fall finally happened for real. As soon as I started looking for a big sweatshirt to put on and realized I was already wearing one, I knew that the weather had changed for the worse. Our windows weren't particularly well sealed, so I went around trying to fix that (with...

So I just played with a solar-powered, remote-control car. It actually runs on hydrogen as its primary source of power.

It's called H2Go, and it calls itself "the world's first hydrogen powered radio control car." The future! We're in it! Look out!

Obviously, it was my duty as a responsible...

Sometime last week my friend, Noah Garfinkel, said he just wished that Alec Baldwin would be on CNBC in character talking about the economy because it would make him feel better. He didn't have the option, by the way, of not watching CNBC, because he was crashing on my...

Why don't people recognize a really rich, important, wacky guy in charge of a huge, modern corporation, and who can be counted on to take a great, weird photograph?

Only one of Microsoft's early honchos had any business experience at all, and while Bill Gates and Paul Allen made the...

Tom Kostigen, author of You Are Here, an environmental book with an unusual approach, took the time to stop by HuffPost Green's New York office this Thursday. Kostigen is on a lengthy book tour and will soon be in Sevilla, Spain, talking to world business leaders with the

Though the photos had been leaked before, GM just officially sent out, far and wide, new images of the much-hyped Chevy Volt.

The electric car, on which much of GM's future is pinned, was originally shown off with an aggressive, race-car looking design that reminded me of our friend Hank...

"Certain death," 90 mph winds, phone outages and everything else Hurricane Ike brought to Houston couldn't deter my Texan grandmother from reading a recent blog post I made announcing a new dietary decision:

One day a week, I'm giving up meat.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has...

In recognition of the baffling popularity of the chant "Drill, baby, drill" at the Republican National Convention, Wired Science has put out a call for creatively remixed videos involving the chant:

In the spirit of a thousand "Don't taze me, bro!" remixes, Wired Science is proud to announce the...

Craig Newmark (you may have heard of his list) is blogging at the Democratic National Convention, working seven days a week and looking forward to OneWebDay, a celebration of the Internet's ability to bring people together.

Still, a few highly-trained professionals managed to capture Craig and subject him...

I have held the future in my hands and it is weird.

What has a microphone, a speaker, and syncs up your actions with sound by navigating little dots? It's not Rock Band. It's a pen called the Pulse, a name which I have previously seen mainly describing gyms, dance...

PC Magazine just churned out a pretty righteous list of what it calls the top 100 undiscovered web sites. It's a very well done list and most of the sites were things I truly hadn't seen before. So I'm going to send the list to all of my friends!

Just a quick note today:

Yesterday, watchful Huffington Post Green video intern Sean found and posted a video that we loved of Jack Nicholson pimping hydrogen-powered cars in the late 1970s. What did we love about it? Kind of everything -- Jack, the incredible commentators, the footage, the moment...

When everybody I know sent me an email or an IM about Cuil this morning, I figured it had to be a big deal. Cuil, if you don't have the same type of friends that I have, is the latest hyped challenger to Google, and it has a sexy...

Here are the two things Amazon Kindle can do for me, and I think it's possible it can do them for you, too: Over a period of time, I think that Kindle can make me smarter and richer.

No. I don't think that.

What I do...

It's clumsy to say aloud -- "ee eenk. eeyeenk" -- but it's a pretty interesting company with a pretty interesting technology. It's most famous, probably, for producing the more readable "electronic paper" display utilized by the Amazon Kindle.

Search, for example, "e ink" on trusted green tech blog...
