The Internet uses more power than the auto industry. Microsoft and Google are trying to cut the carbon output of their server farms by investing in alternative energy. How about a data center powered by a fuel cell running on waste methane?

California's City by the Bay has dramatically cut greenhouse gas emissions by switching to a mostly hybrid taxi fleet. It's a model for the rest of the country. Too bad about New York, though.

The EV1 was built for the Baja 1000, but now the armed forces are taking an interest. Why not, when this thing can go anywhere and combat-ready gasoline is $435 a gallon?

My post-Sandy challenges — connecting to the Internet and getting my work posted online — don't amount to a hill of beans compared to others' woes, but I'm sure readers will be nodding their heads.
