From solar-powered lily pads & twirling wind-powered lights to sweet sorghum ethanol & one very James-Bond-like solar boat -- Green Dot judges assembled a wide variety of the best and brightest green ideas around the world.
Congrats to Hossein Farmani for a great concept and a great show. Advice for next year, the "Other" category should be "Technology" (I've corrected it for you above), and you must add "Best Green Website!"

Hi Karl,
We haven't met, but we sitting on the same row at the green dot awards. Great article, but Fruit of the Orchard took place in East Texas and it was a commercial hazardous waste injection well facility that accepted waste from all the country and Canada.
I would like to know how to become a contributor to MNN. I have many stories on environmental injustice that I would like to see published.
Thanks again for writing about the event !
Best,
Tammy Cromer-Campbell

Hey Karl,
Thank you so much for writing about the first annual Green Dot Awards! We are very proud of the event and the everyone who attended the event, including all of the first place winners from all over the world, truly made the night!
So you know, the award, itself, is actually made of glass (not recycled plastic) and the base is of bamboo. And, yes, it's likely that you will see the Best Green Website as a new category ;-)
Looking forward to seeing you next.... More
