		<description><![CDATA[My last post, on how stupid we can all be, focused on not doing the obvious and the risks that come with some short term decisions. This post highlights one companies efforts to do something smart.
In an article in Refrigerated Transporter (who knew there was a magazine focusing on just that?), Carriers efforts in service [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I was reading in a green newsletter on automotive stuff, and found some more evidence that we in the US are stupid (not that this evidence is hard to find).
Stupid #1: Gas prices are down, due to falling demand, mostly because of the recession. But recessions only last a couple of years, and the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently highlighted a novel audio amp that can run off batteries for a long, long time. And I&#8217;ve been collecting some other low power stuff that I&#8217;ll share here. But what really makes it complete is the concept of Energy Harvesting!We&#8217;re all familiar with photovoltaics, that turn light into electricity. There is a company [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s amazing what application specific integrated circuits can do now. I never stop being surprised at what I keep seeing coming out of the pipeline. Audium Semiconductor recently gave me one such surprise with the hyper efficient AS1001 amplifier that can deliver 100 watts peak power, from a 1.5 volt (read single battery) power supply.

		<description><![CDATA[The Nissan Leaf is an all electric car for the masses. On paper, the car seems to be a much more realistic proposition than cars like the Tesla or the Fisker. It&#8217;s a small 5 seat car, with a range of 100 miles and a target price somewhere a bit above $25k. For many, this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Turns out the crafty Germans are at it again! As reported in the Fraunhofer Research News recently, a group there is working with something called a redox flow battery. Basically it uses a liquid instead of a solid to store the charge. This isn&#8217;t new, but the team has brought the energy density up to that of [...]]]></description>
