Dead trees turned into art? Love it! Artist and designer Dave Rittinger has proposed a new idea for a public art piece which would see existing (perhaps existing but dead would be more practical?) trees turned into art pieces by way of turning their branches into giant colouring pencils. So far, Rittinger has only experimented with turning small tree limbs into various different man-made objects (baseball bats and toothpicks have also been tried), but it would certainly be interesting to see this proposal become a reality.

Cheap and abundant fossil fuels have cemented bad energy habits, especially in rich countries. Most of our methods of producing, distributing and using energy are massively inefficient. These inefficiencies run across all production and use of energy, from the power plants to our everyday use of cars, heating and cooling systems, air travel and stand-by-power. Be a bright spark and remember to turn off the light…

As firefighters fight major fires all over the world, this is one of the coolest pictures coming out of Australia! When an animal is dehydrated it WILL drink water even if they normally get it from their food. All animals/mammals drink water even if it isn’t often and seeing as this picture was from a forest fire then obviously there were no leaves for the koala to eat and is why it is drinking from the water bottle.
