Hot on the green, urban heels of Sony’s ODO line-up comes their latest eco product, the Twirl N’ Take concept camera. Give that wheel a spin for about 15 seconds and the device has enough juice to power its way through a single photograph. The camera is installed in the handle. To see your snaps, you have to connect the cam to a computer since the camera itself lacks a display. How analog of you Sony.

Be kind to the environment with Aleutia’s 4.5 inch solar powered Linux computer, E1. E1 runs on 8 watts of power, has no moving parts and is completely silent. From the picture above, E1 looks like the James Bond of low priced Linux computers. It runs Puppy Linux, comes with an optional solar panel and an optional 10.4 inch monitor. Sadly, E1 carries a $400 price tag and crappy specs (2GB hard drive, 128MB RAM, 200MHz processor). However, E1’s portability and light footprint may be an early glimpse into the future of computing.

Valeswood Pearl hydrogen-fueled, power-assisted bicycle, which motors up to 15 MPH and takes you about 80 miles before you need to juice the batteries. When you’re finished with all the hard labor of pedaling, the bike folds up neatly and can be tucked away in the trunk of your 9 MPG SUV. If you’re the eco-centric cat or kitten that we think you are, you’re not going to be too miffed about that $4000 price tag, and we’re sure the only kind of short you’ll be rocking will be of the organic hemp variety
