I love these. I truly truly do. They’re so very pretty and cheap too! Pick up these lovely eco friendly sketchbooks by Cartolina here.

I’m sorry but I think this thing is freakin adorable. Ladies and Gentlemen I give you the AirPod, a car that runs on compressed air! It seats three people (granted one must face backward but whatever). The AirPodtops out at about 40 mph and it has a range of 130 miles before it needs a refill. Which I realize isn’t great but the concept is pretty cool nonetheless.

Refilling The AirPod can be quick  n easy (if you happen to have an aircar fueling station nearby) or slow n tedious (if you have to charge using an inexpensive home compressor.) But these cars are really great for the environment. The power used to compress the air is pure-coal-fired power but even so the AirPod is much much cleaner than gasoline.

Found this interesting bit over at aNEW designs (thanks danny). William Gordon just had an article published on Core77. The article is titled, “One Factory, One Forest: Design, Ecology and Micro-Economic Development in Guyana” explains about William’s designs and having them produced in Guyana. The article explores the process of a design, materials and production in Guyana. To read the full article go to this link at Core77.
