1. save the disregarded paper which is printed on one side
2. mark out the printed side with a maker
3. put this paper in the printer's external printer
4. print on the clean side for internal use only (memos, meeting handouts, todo lists, flyer layout testing...).

• Automatically marks out the back side of reused paper with a big "X" or the word "REUSED".
• With a feed tray specially designed for reusing paper.
• And a printer setting to send a print to "Reused Paper Tray" rather than the "New Paper Tray"

My thesis: Is it possible to produce energy from this belt?

Yes:

1)      Any point in the flow , the direction will be consistent

2)      The flow intersections are for cold streams and hot streams, hot streams will be flow on surface and cold will be on in deep ocean

3)       The speed of the stream could be vary

What we need:

1)      We need an underwater mountain or a heavy rock

2)      We need underwater turbines  which can stick to the rock and run round and round

Best Places to build:

1)      Maldives (India ) , Indonesia , UK, Madagascar     

Energy:

Abundant

Benefits:

No Pollution, No Green House effect

Challenge:

This could be a great puzzle to the great engineers   around the glob.

Name of the Energy:

Not yet decided.

PRINTING PAPER THAT DISPERSES WITH WATER AND CAN GO DOWN THE DRAIN INSTEAD OF BEING SHREDDED AND THEN STUCK IN A LAND FILL.  PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF INTERESTED IN THIS PRODUCT.

I work in a call center where we have anywhere between 50-60 Dell Desktop computers, I've only been working here for 3 years but have noticed that the air quality in the room is poor, even with our buildings air system going dust accumulates everywhere. One day I was moving one of the desktops and there was a bunch of dust build up on the front and back of the tower.

I thought of an idea, wouldn't it be nice if I could pull some sort of filter mechanism that keeps the dust out of case, clean it off and put in back into the case with out having to take it apart or possibly damaging components. A thought came to mind about the old Sharper Image commercials about the "Ionic Breeze" and how if collected all sorts of bacteria and dust in the air and released just the clean air back into the room. This required no filters or mess, just had to wipe it down and put it back into the device.

I think the same technology can be put into Desktop computers, keeping the majority the air entering the tower clean; but it doesn't need to end there, the same device can we put on the back of the tower where normally the hot air is pulled out of the case. So in the end the tower has a double filtering device can cleans air around the user but also keeping the air that’s in the case constantly clean

I've seen Dell wanting to improve the environment, but what about the health of people who have computers at work, home, and school? I think this is a great idea because I know from experience if you just let the dust collect on your desktop, things tend to short out or break. Cleaning the air we all breathe and saving money with low maintenance equipment and making it more efficient would be a big plus for any one.

What does Dell think about this kind of idea?

Blackle was created by Heap Media to remind us all of the need to take small steps in our everyday lives to save energy. Blackle searches are powered by Google Custom Search.

Blackle saves energy because the screen is predominantly black. "Image displayed is primarily a function of the user's color settings and desktop graphics, as well as the color and size of open application windows; a given monitor requires more power to display a white (or light) screen than a black (or dark) screen." Roberson et al, 2002

In January 2007 a blog post titled Black Google Would Save 750 Megawatt-hours a Year proposed the theory that a black version of the Google search engine would save a fair bit of energy due to the popularity of the search engine. Since then there has been skepticism about the significance of the energy savings that can be achieved and the cost in terms of readability of black web pages.

We believe that there is value in the concept because even if the energy savings are small, they all add up. Secondly we feel that seeing Blackle every time we load our web browser reminds us that we need to keep taking small steps to save energy.

I'm not done yet, I am thinking about getting a laptop so I began searching for a greener one like my Cell phone a Motorola Renew from T-Mobile but I could not find any. Look into manufacturing one.
