Notes Design

Two green innovations that almost seem too good to be true:

The NatureMill kitchen cabinet composter only draws 50 cents of power per month, but will allegedly turn your table scraps into compost in just two weeks, without attracting the insects and vermin that can plague urban applications of composting. It's hard to tell from the crappy product photos, but it's about the size of a paper shredder. Retails for around $300.

The Lifesaver water filtration bottle is designed for simplicity--you dunk it into dirty water to fill it, use the integrated pump to get the water through the filter, and can then drink the clean results. Takes under a minute to process and can be used for over five years. The catch? $460 retail!
