Environmentalism

Here's a quick reminder on why we ALL have to help our environment. Cliche, I know. But realistically speaking we have begun to have no choice but to CARE. Our environment is our home, it's where we live and where our children will leave. To do all of this we must remember to correct all the wrong choices we make...such as: not recycling, wasting water, and having too much pollution in our cities, and too little trees. Remember to conserve as much water as we can, we can do that by having rain gutters, barrels outside to conserve water, and having as LITTLE concrete as possible. Concrete is torturous towards our environment, useless as well. We MUST recycle, it's not all that hard either...just have two trash bins instead of one, and take an extra second to think about what should be thrown, and where.

Last, but not least, PLANT MORE TREES. I would take a minute to explain on why, but there's just too much great things that trees do! They are a necessity towards our environment, and must be planted and protected. To gather more information about, well, everything mentioned in this post, go to: www.treepeople.org

Color Picker Pen Concept

A concept pen created by Korean designer Jinsu Park allows you to scan any color from your environment and instantly use it for your drawing pleasures. This idea is not out in stores yet, but hopefully in the making. This device detects color by the RGB Color Sensor inside the pen. The red, green, and blue inks are mixed together to create the desired color. I find this concept simply beautiful, there are so many colors that are hard to achieve.
